Magento 2 Prices per Customer Manual

Prices per Customer

Introdution

Magento 2 Prices per Customer extension allows the merchant to utilize an individual approach to shoppers, providing any customer with both regular and special price for each product. The flexible settings let the store owners create an effective pricing strategy for Magento 2 online stores. The extension provides schemes for product pricing (flat rate, ± flat rate or percentage).

Requirements and Installation

Prices per Customer supports both Community and Enterprise edition of Magento 2. The current version of Magento installed on your website can be found in the lower right corner of any backend page.

Prices per Customer extension has 3 separate ways of installation: via Composer or by copying the code.

1) Copy the code (ready-to-paste package);
2) Use MageWorx Repository;
3) Use local Composer.

Extension Configuration

Backend Setup

Log into the Magento Admin panel and go to STORES ⟶ Configuration ⟶ MAGEWORX ⟶ Prices per Customer .

Prices per Customer

If the merchants need these new prices to be taken into account for the price rules, they can enable the Use Customer Price In Catalog Price Rule.

If the store owner changes the prices but doesn't observe this on the frontend, it is recommended to click the Manually Synchronize Data button.

Assigning Prices From the Products Workspace

To set custom prices for different store shoppers from the Products workspace, the store owner needs to go to PRODUCTS ⟶ Inventory ⟶ Catalog and select the desired product to adjust this value for. The extension adds the Prices per Customer tab at the bottom of the page.

Click the Search Customer button to show the customer grid in the popup.

After that the store owner can set either/both a Customer price or/and Customer Special Price. Customer Price replaces the product price with a custom value. Customer Special Price shows a new price together with the original price. The extension supports:

  • Fixed values like 10.99. This replaces the current price with the given value.

  • Fixed surcharges/discounts like ±10.99. This increases/decreases the current price by given value.

  • Percents value like 15%. This replaces the current price with the one that can be calculated as 15% from the initial one.

  • Percents surcharges/discounts like ±15%. This increases/decreases the current price by given percent.

Click the Save Customer Price button after you are ready.

After that, below these settings the grid will show the values.

It is possible to add as many customer prices here as needed. All these values will be shown in the grid.

Customer Prices Import/Export

The extension has the possibility to export the prices per customer and to import them. Log into the Magento Admin panel and go to SYSTEM ⟶ Data Transfer ⟶ Import / Export. The import and expor prices functionality is done as the native Magento import/export process, that's why you can use all features available for the native import/export process.

Import

The extension allows you to import either the customer global prices or customer product prices. You should choose the appropriate value in the Entity type drop-down at the Import page. Once it is selected, you can download the sample CSV file.

Other features come from the native Magento 2 import functionality. You can check more details about them here.

To check the structure of the CSV files, click on the "Download sample file" link.

Customer global prices:
Prices per Customer

Customer product prices:
Prices per Customer

The files also support "+", "-" and "%" prices.

Export

The extension allows you to export either the customer global prices or customer product prices. You should choose the appropriate value in the Entity type drop-down at the Export page.

Other features come from the native Magento 2 import functionality. You can check more details about them here.

Migration from Magento 1

If you have our Magento 1 Prices per Customer, you can export the data from Magento 1 and then import the CSV file to Magento 2 installation. For this, log into the Magento 1 admin panel and go to System ⟶ Import/Export ⟶ Prices per Customer ⟶ Export Prices. The Value delimiter should be , and for the Enclose Values In put ".

Prices per Customer

Check the exported file on the server. The structure of the exported CSV will be as follows:

"User ID","Email","SKU","QTY","User Price","User Special Price"
"1","[email protected]","24-MB01","","4","2"
"2","[email protected]","24-MB01","","-14%","-30%"
"2","[email protected]","24-MB03","","30","20"
"2","[email protected]","24-MB02","","-10","-20"

You should remove the "Email" and "QTY" columns from the CSV file and upload it to your Magento 2 store as the "Customer product prices" entity.

CLI

The extension allows you to synchronize the customer prices using the CLI (command line interface). It might be helpful if you have a large number of customer prices. In order to synchronize data using CLI you should run the following command:

php bin/magento mageworx-customer-prices:synchronize
