Pricing Question

Post by bitmite » Mon Jun 14, 2010 10:06 am

We sell solar products, thus product price is depended on the customers latitude and longitude (in other words address). Is this possible to do with the product out of the box or with custom programming. If programming is involved how big would the effect be in to implement something like this?
Thanks

AbleCommerce let you create special pricing for different user groups. So on solution could be to create different user groups for different locations and create pricing rules for your products depending upon those groups. Finally place your users on respective groups and users will see their respective prices on products. If you proceed with all you would need few lines of code responsible for adding customer to its specific group.

Where are you collecting Long/Lat information from customer? How many different prices could be there, actually I want to know that how many groups needs to be created for this purpose?
