| Ok trying to hack my way through the ever helpful IBM documentation in
answer to the following question.
We would like to setup a scenario where we have pre registered users. These
users would be put into 3 groups and each of those groups would see a
different base price for a product.
Now reading the documentation it seems that this would be done through
member groups. However apart from that I then get lost by what seems to be
different terms for the same thing. I think that what we need to use are
user groups for the users and then link these to price lists or trading
containers. These will contain the separate prices we want for a product.
However what confuses me is what is a user group, I think it is a profile
from accelerator? However I cannot see any specific details on if this is
true or not it seems to infer a profile is only good for merchandising and
marketing.
But if you do create a profile in accelerator, and then go into
orgAdminConsole and select a user. Then click on member groups you see the
profiles created through accelerator, so can these be linked to a price
list? I guess this has to be done through massload but what does the
trading container link to? Is it the profile created through accelerator?
One thing we do then when to do if we can get this to work is extend the
pricing command. We will then want to check and see if this base price is
different to a price held against the customer in an additional table, so if
anyone has any info on getting an external price into Commerce that would be
great as well.
Cheers Bleddyn

| Well I've had prices working like you want with version 5.1 via mass
loading.
I have now 5.5 Express with lot's of new interfaces for the Back Office but
one thing I know is that those interfaces screw everything when you try to
set prices throught them.
All I can remeber of what I did is that you create a member group (mbrgrp
but this imply to create a member of type G) link the users to it (mbrgrpmbr
I think), create 3 tradeposcn associated to the 3 member groups you created
and link the member groups and the tradeposcn via mgptrdpscn and then create
different offers for the good catentry and tradeposcn_id and it should work.
Hope that helps
