Pricing Rules- Product Volume with a Price Change

We REALLY want to use Pricing rules for the following scenario: Purchase 3 of the 12 performanes and you will recieve a discount. We would like the discount to be applied by a price type change. We have set this up as a Product Volume Rule with a Price type change. We have set it to Switch from a Reg price type to a new Fest Pass price type and have selected the 3-12 products (performances). We have added it to the Rule Set that is associated with 2 MOS. In both of those MOS nothing happens when we add 3 performaces at the Regular price type. We would expect that the price type would change to the Fest Pass price type that we programmed. What are we missing?

Thanks!

Janna

  • Hi Janna,

     

    Are you adding these performances as part of a flex package? Component performances in a flex package (or any package really) do not trigger pricing rules.

     

    If packages are not your problem, make sure that you are seating or at least choosing a price zone for the performances, as the pricing rules don’t fire until the system goes to price the SLIs.  I know I’ve had that trip me up a few times when I’m moving quickly to test a pricing rule.

     

    And if that’s not the issue, I suggest opening a help ticket so support can look at things a little more closely with you.

  • Dot- yes the rule set is associated with the MOS that I am using.

     

    I can get this to work if I change it to be a discount price change instead of a price type change. I must be missing something in the price type change set up.

  • It is not a flex package. I am also seating them all and there is no change. I will open a ticket.

     

    Also are there other reports for pricing rules other than Rule Statistics that I am missing?

     

    Thanks,

    Janna

     

  • The price type you are changing to must be associated with the MOS of the ticket orders. If you don’t want the price type to be available on its own in the dropdown or on the web, remove security rights for the price type from the applicable user groups (for the web that would be the Web APIs user group).

    Is Fest Pass price type associated to the MOS you are using? I know that seems silly, but I had to ask.

  • UPDATE: We were silly and had programmed a different source code that we were not using in our testing. Bryan Evans is amazing and helped us find the issue.

    Lesson learned- when testing for the first time maybe you should program all appeals and source codes first and verify it works. But we are using Pricing Rules now - so I say it's a WIN!
