Domain: Price

The Price domain manages all price-related logic for product variants. It computes and exposes the final price a customer sees, composed of multiple configurable components.


Responsibilities

  • Retrieving base prices and discounts from Microsoft Dynamics (ERP).
  • Applying tax (VAT/BTW) rules per product and customer segment.
  • Applying shipping uplift for oversized or heavy products.
  • Exposing a structured price breakdown per product variant.
  • Supporting customer-specific and segment-specific pricing (B2C).

Price Components

Component Description
Base price The net purchase or recommended retail price, sourced from Microsoft Dynamics.
Discount An absolute or percentage reduction applied to the base price. Sourced from ERP or promotional rules.
Tax (VAT/BTW) Dutch BTW applied on top of the net price. Typically 21% for general goods, 9% for specific categories.
Shipping uplift A surcharge added to the product price for oversized, heavy, or otherwise complex-to-ship products.

Price calculation (example)

Selling price = (Base price − Discount) × (1 + VAT rate) + Shipping uplift

Entities

Entity Description
Price The computed price record for a ProductVariant, containing all price components.
PriceList A named set of prices applicable to a customer group or segment.
TaxRate A configured VAT/BTW percentage associated with a product or category.

Integrations

Microsoft Dynamics (ERP)

Base prices, discounts and customer-specific pricing are mastered in Microsoft Dynamics. Prices are synchronised to the Zwerfkei Backend and may be refreshed on a scheduled or on-demand basis.


Business Rules

  • A product variant always has at least one price in the default price list.
  • Discounts are applied before tax.
  • Shipping uplift is a fixed amount per product variant, not percentage-based.
  • Customer-specific prices (B2C) take precedence over the default price list.
  • Prices including VAT are shown to B2C customers; prices excluding VAT are shown to B2C customers by default.
