Creating a currency constant to use in a price rule
If you have a price that you intend to use repeatedly in price calculations, you can create a currency constant to represent that price. For example, you can create a currency constant to represent a fixed distribution cost to add to certain prices in a price list. You can specify values in different currencies. You can then use the currency constant in price equations. You can also use the currency constant in the Comparison Condition
