families description supports consistent regular pricing for related products by organizing them into families and maintaining their intended relative price positions through family ratios it enables pricing managers to review the full category assortment, validate suggested groups, and configure how package size relationships are preserved as the optimization algorithm proposes new regular prices families overview sub parts & functions all products provides the category scoped assortment view, including standalone products and expanded family groups product rows expose family ratio, cost, supplier, brand, and unit size so managers can assess whether related items have appropriate commercial and pack size relationships before grouping them all products key elements family ratio — shows the multiplier between a member product's price and the family anchor cost — supports a commercial check of the member's economics supplier, brand, unit size — help identify related variants and pack size relationships in families limits the scope to products already assigned to a family, providing a focused governance view of established price relationships use it to audit existing groups and confirm that their member assortment remains appropriate as products and category structures change in families key elements in families count — indicates how many products in the selected category scope belong to families family suggestions surfaces candidate product groups marked as suggested to become a family for manager review approving a suggestion creates a governed relationship for the displayed members; ignoring it prevents that candidate group from being adopted through this review flow family suggestions key elements suggested to become a family — groups the candidate members proposed for joint pricing approve — accepts the suggested member group for family management ignore — rejects the displayed suggestion family ratio — shows the proposed relative multiplier for each candidate member family settings configures the members, family ratios, and package size pricing treatment for a selected family exactly proportional keeps prices exactly proportional to ratios, rounded proportional applies individual rounding while retaining proportionality, and standard permits larger items to be cheaper per measurement unit to support higher total sales family settings key elements custom ratio for different package sizes — enables ratio based treatment across package sizes standard — allows a larger item to have a lower price per measurement unit rounded proportional — preserves ratio based positioning with individually rounded prices exactly proportional — enforces prices exactly in proportion to family ratios family ratio — defines each member's multiplier relative to the family anchor add product — adds an additional product to the family connections & integrations families governs relative regular price positioning alongside the optimization algorithm, which generates new regular prices from price rules, reference prices, cost, sales data, and model insight signals a family ratio preserves the member to anchor relationship as prices move; product level manual prices and locked product status can override algorithmic regular repricing key actions select a category scope to review its assortment and existing family coverage review candidate groups in with suggestions and approve or ignore each proposal open family settings for an existing family add or remove family members and assign their family ratios choose the package size pricing treatment that matches the category pricing strategy audit existing families through the in families view best practices & success stories well configured families preserve clear value ladders across related variants as new regular prices change approving valid suggestions reduces manual effort in identifying products that should be priced together appropriate package size treatment can align price perception with the intended commercial strategy important considerations validate pack sizes, brands, suppliers, and costs before approving a suggested family, because members are intended to be priced together use exactly proportional only when strict price multiples are more important than rounded customer facing prices use standard when the pricing strategy intentionally rewards larger packs with a lower price per measurement unit review family membership regularly when assortments, pack sizes, or product roles change incorrect family ratios can distort relative regular prices across all members of a family adding unrelated products to a family can force inconsistent price positioning between products that should be priced independently overriding family driven prices with manual prices can break the optimization algorithm's learning loop when used excessively relevant tutorials group products into families and set price ratios docid\ fe0i ufla46zdfuvoj4la
