The following video walks through MAP pricing in coreFORCE: https://vimeo.com/285052105
Since that video was done, a few new options have been added to MAP pricing to satisfy manufacturer's detailed requirements:
- [None] - default MAP behavior: MAP price is displayed with a button that says "Add to cart for best price"
- Strict MAP - as in the video, email for best price (customers can also skip the Email for quote and just add to cart at the MAP price)
- Strict MAP with code - same as email for price, except the customer gets a unique promotional code they have to enter at checkout. This is to satisfy manufacturers who require the discount to be applied at the final stage of checkout.
* For the two email options, coreFORCE adds a random delay before sending the customer the email (5-10 minutes). Some manufacturers do not allow automatic emails with the price, so the delay is to satisfy them. - Call for price - the only way to get the real price is to call you.
- MAP is minimum price - sell the product at the MAP price. No further discounts offered.
- Ignore MAP - sell the product based on the pricing structure without regard to MAP at all. Only use this if you are sure that this is ok with the manufacturer.
