This element is used to specify price control information. The PRICE_FEATURE_GROUP is used to control the conditions under which a price (e.g. feature combinations) applies.
A PRICE_FEATURE_GROUP is referenced by the item. The specific prices are also specified in the item.
The following rules apply to PRICE_FEATURE_GROUP and/or items:
- Price group-neutral items can have options that are price-neutral. Their price must not be stated in price field 1, and they must only have one FINISHED element for the price field information. Price field-independent items for which only one FINISH element, in which the price is specified, exists in the PRICE_FEATURE_GROUP are only permitted to have one assigned price in accordance with the FINISH element specified in the price field.
- Variation-dependent items have one or a number of features.
- An item must reference precisely one base price group (ADDITIONAL_PRICE=0).
The creation of multiple PRICE_FEATURE_GROUPs with the same combination of features are permitted.
