Regardless of whether you are selling to retail customers or wholesale clients, it is important to note that pricing may vary among different buyers. This is where NetSuite’s Price Levels prove to be advantageous. Rather than managing numerous item records or implementing manual adjustments, price levels facilitate the assignment of the appropriate price to each customer consistently.
What Are Price Levels in NetSuite?
Price levels enable the establishment of various pricing tiers for a singular item. For example:
– $32 for retail customers
– $28 for corporate clients
– $12 for bulk buyers
You can configure:
– Discounted or marked-up prices (% based)
– Customer-specific price lists
– Default price levels per customer

Why Price Levels Matter
Are you still manually pricing all your items? Here’s what you’re missing out on:
– Streamlined sales order entry, with prices automatically populated based on customer information.
– A reduction in errors, thereby avoiding unintentional overcharging or undercharging.
– Enhanced segmentation: the capability to assign distinct pricing tiers to various customer groups.
