Overview
This can be used to set tiers on what you want to charge for certain order volumes.
It is meant for scenarios where certain order volumes will incur a different charge from others.
Set-Up: Adding an Order Tier
To set this up please do the following:
Click 3PL Accounting then Overview.
Next Order Volume Tier Pricing then Create.
Then choose the Client and Minimum Charge.
Choose if it’s Split Tier (To learn more please read below).
Click Create.
You will then be given the option to add tiers and the costs of those tiers.
You will need to change the picking calculation type within the client details (On the Picking Costs tab) to OrderVolumeTierPricing and also set the invoice frequency for this with Tiered Pricing Invoice Frequency.
If Order volume tier pricing is set for a client, it will override any Client level pick pricing, with warnings as the Channel version.
Set-Up: Split Tier pricing
If you turned ON Split-Tier then you will be asked to add a tier of pricing, for example:
Start: 1
Cost: 0.05
There is only a start so that the tiers naturally flow into each other, this will eliminate any issues with overlapping tiers or gaps between tiers.
When using tiered pricing there isn't an additional pick fee. It is a flat rate fee per unit; the pick pricing fields on the client page do not get used when using tiered pricing.
The system uses the tiered pricing for all.
