+1 on that.
Cloning, etc is cumbersome and not very productive.

I am sorry this is not possible anylonger. Our expectation is that 90% of the users (or even more) need a system which works in categories. Consider that you can create unpublished categories like plus-10,plus-15,plus-20 and then you can achieve that a lot easier with categorising your pricing system.

We could also later write a customplugin for that, so that you can enter it as a variant, which is automatically shown to the right shoppergroups.

pfffffff, real smart move removing features.  You assume 90%, but what about the other 10%? This nonsense never ends.

"Use a third party plugin", you got to be kidding me!

Hi Milbo and other Virtuemart developers.

I can't agree too with argument that this future is useful only for 10% users. I think one of important benefits Virtuemart 1.1 was customization. For example we have 500 clients with Virtuemart stores and more 80% uses more prices for shoppers groups.
Adding prices for shoppers groups is Virtuemart is about 5 lines in VirtueMartModelProduct and calculationHelper (without administration this prices, managment of this prices can solve 3rd extentensions).
But my question and proposal is: Is possible move price calculation from model and helper to new Virtumeart plugin in any next versions?.
This would allow easy:

  • Simply and fast calculation with minimum database queries for simply stores.

  • Default calculation "by rules" as is in current Virtuemart version.

  • But as well prices by shopper groups ids with custom plugin.

  • Custom coupon calculation with custom plugin.

  • Discounts by refering websites (like from from facebook, "discounts aggregators") with custom plugin.

  • And many "unlimited" prices futures. 
If you agree with this proposal We would collaborate on this.

I don't doubt that custom plugins in better solution than modification core VM models and plugins. But it will be uncomplicated and most powerful "switch" default  "plugin price calculator", than using price methods and VirtueMartModelProduct and calculationHelper and rewritte prices with custom plugin (Because now, "base" prices of simply product are loaded in products model too).

Thank you for consideration of this proposal.

This is absolutely essential for my client's 2 stores. 
There is a need for two sets of prices - one for the shopper and one for the wholesaler, in this situation.
I'm a little bewildered that this isn't available in VM2.
Seriously, is there any help on the horizon, or are we simply heading into messy town?

Regards.

edit-- Can you please explain why there is the ability to setup shopper groups & calculations and add the newly created discount to the products in VM2, yet the calculations not appear in the cart for the consumer/shopper group?  Am I missing something?

DG,

Hi just wondering if you have tried the new 2.0.7 updates as your request I think is in there for testing.
In shopper groups you will find a new configuration.

the idea is that a product is added to the public and to the wholesaler- you have a tax or an amount set for the wholesaler and when they log in they only can see that price.

* I presume this is done through taxes and not an individual set price - just have a look.

Hi John,

Yes, that's exactly the idea.  Thanks for the headsup on 2.0.7 - I was waiting for it to get out of Beta, but at this stage, it could be the answer.
Much appreciation for the reply.  It's worth a look.

:)

Hi just wondering if you have tried the new 2.0.7 updates as your request I think is in there for testing.
In shopper groups you will find a new configuration.

does this allow for the functionality requested in the original question?

We will have 3 "Shopper Groups" -> Default (Unregistered Users), Retailers, and Distributors.

Each shopper group will see different pricing

Default = No Pricing. (See #1 above under Unregistered Users)
Retailers = its own shopper group pricing
Distributors = its own shopper group pricing.

***We don't want to add the same product three different times for each shopper group. Is there any way to set it up so that we can enter the product "one time" and set the pricing for each shopper group in the product set-up page in the admin?

Hi John,

Yes, I have tried - up to 2.0.7d.  I'm about to go and take a look at 2.0.7e.  I'll get back to you.
Cheers.
