Introduction
This guide gives a basic introduction to price lists in TRAEDE – what they are, when to use them, and how they affect product pricing. Price lists allow you to override your standard catalog prices in specific situations, such as for particular customer groups, currencies, or upcoming seasons.

What is a price list?
A price list is a way to set up alternative base prices for your products. These prices override the default catalog prices in specific scenarios.
Base price vs. price list price
The catalog price is the default price shown in the product’s Sales prices section:
If you want to adjust prices for certain customers or for a new season, you can create a price list that contains new prices for the same products.
Price list example
In this example, a product has a standard catalog price, but also a price list that includes prices for the AUD currency.
If a customer is linked to this price list and places an order in AUD, they will see this new price instead of the catalog price.
If the price list does not include a price for the customer's currency (e.g., DKK or EUR), then TRAEDE will fall back to using the catalog price.
When to use price lists
Price lists are useful in two main scenarios:
1. Special pricing for specific customer groups
If you have a special agreement with, for example, a department store, distributor, or retailer, you can assign them to a customer group and link that group to a price list.
💡 This ensures those customers always get their agreed-upon pricing.
2. Updating prices for new seasons
If you’re launching a new season or collection and want to apply different prices, you can create a price list and assign it to a drop.
💡 This allows you to keep your stock prices the same, but show updated prices for pre-orders or new collections.
Price lists and customer discounts
It’s important to understand how discounts work in relation to price lists:
-
A price list replaces the base price (catalog price).
-
Any customer-specific discounts are still applied on top of the price list price.
Example:
If a product has an AUD price of 100 in a price list, and the customer has a 10% discount, the final price will be:
90 AUD
