Use prices from an ERP system

To fetch list prices from a ERP system, override the IPriceCalculator.

Step 1: Create a class librabry project in Visual Studio, and reference Litium.Studio.dll

Step 2: Add a class that extend the PriceCalculator and override method GetListPrices() (see below example).

using Litium.Foundation.Modules.ProductCatalog.Plugins.PriceCalculator;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System;

namespace Litum.Studio.KC.Samples.ERPPricing
{
    public class ERPPriceCalculator:PriceCalculator
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// Get the list price from ERP system, instead of using LitiumStudio price lists.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="priceCalculatorArgs">Contains details of article for which prices are needed.</param>
        /// <returns>dictionary of prices, with article id as key.</returns>
        public override IDictionary<Guid, ListPriceResult> GetListPrices(params PriceCalculatorArgs[] priceCalculatorArgs)
        {
            var listPricesFromERP = new Dictionary<Guid, ListPriceResult>();
            //TODO: Call the ERP system to get list prices for each item in priceCalculatorArgs
            //for this example, we simply set the price to 7 before VAT !
            foreach (var item in priceCalculatorArgs)
            {
                //note that the price you will see is 8.75 with VAT (from 7 x 1.25)
                var listPrice = new ListPriceResult() { ListPrice = 7, VatPercentage = 0.25M };
                listPricesFromERP.Add(item.ArticleID, listPrice);
            }
            return listPricesFromERP;
        }
    }
}
