View Exactly How Your Sales Prices Are Calculated, Directly From The Sale Order in Odoo

Odoo’s pricing engine is powerful and flexible, allowing businesses to define complex pricing strategies using multiple pricelists, rules, and customer-specific logic; But for sales teams, this flexibility often comes with a challenge. Odoo calculates the correct price—but doesn’t clearly show how that price was calculated.

But for sales teams, this flexibility often comes with a challenge.

For Example:

• On the standard pricelist, Product A has a default price of $100
• It also has a dynamic price rule that makes the price $90 for a specific customer.

While Odoo correctly applies the $90 price, the salesperson has no visibility into:

• Which pricelist was used
• Which rule triggered the discount
• How the final price was derived

To verify pricing, users often have to:

• Cross-reference spreadsheets
• Manually review pricelist configurations
• Or rely on assumptions

This slows down the sales process and reduces trust in the system.

The Solution: Pricing Transparency Inside the Sales Order

Steersman’s new feature introduces a Unit Price Breakdown Wizard, giving users immediate access to the logic behind every price on a Sales Order line.

By clicking into the unit price wizard of an order line, sales users can now see:

• Which pricing rule was applied
• Which pricelist the rule came from
• How the price evolved step-by-step
• What variables influenced the final result

All without leaving the Sales Order screen.

A Clear Breakdown of Pricing Logic

The Unit Price Wizard provides a structured view of the pricing calculation through two key sections:

1. Pricing Variables
   A simple table showing:

   • All variables used in the calculation
   • The value of each variable
     • This helps users understand the inputs that influenced pricing—such as quantities, discounts, or customer-specific conditions.

2. Pricing Rules Audit Trail
   A detailed breakdown of every rule involved in calculating the final price. Each step includes:

   • Rule Type – The type of pricing logic applied
   • Pricelist Name – Where the rule originated
   • Rule Description – The specific pricing rule used
   • Price at This Step – The calculated price after applying the rule
   • Formula – The logic or formula behind the calculation

The last entry represents the active rule that determined the final price, while the above entries show the hierarchy of rules evaluated during the process.

With pricing transparency built directly into the Sales Order workflow, your team benefits from:

• Increased trust in automated pricing
• Faster quote validation and approvals
• Reduced reliance on external tools and spreadsheets
• Improved accuracy in customer communication

Sales teams can confidently explain pricing to customers, managers can verify logic instantly, and organizations gain better control over their pricing strategies.
