why have product families if I can't apply discounts to them?

Posted on by 1,010

Never mind that.  I see that I can hang a discount list on a Price List Item, but I don't want to maintain all of that.  I want to hang it on the "Price List Family".  Seems as family is just a parent class of product or bundle (isn't a bundle just a family impersonating a product? -- no, because products can belong to more than one bundle) there should be the family-to-discount list relationship in the pricing mechanism.  No?  Future feature?

Is it going to require custom coding to apply a discount list to an entire family?

    Then on top of that product family is not visible for customization, so I can't even attach values to link to discount lists while descending the family tree.

    Quite a useless accoutrement as it stands.

    Can't add product family to pricelist

    You can't add a product family to a pricelist. If you contact support, please provide the technical details.

    that's what you get when you try.  and if you don't have a price list item, I don't know where to hang the discount list
