Setting Product Pricing:
Magento 2 also allows for group-specific pricing, per product. (This could be used for tier pricing for wholesale customers). This can be set when you are creating your products, or you can go back and edit an already existing product.
When creating a new product or editing an existing product, click on Advanced Pricing under the Price field:
An advanced pricing tab will open, allowing you to add tier and group-specific pricing:
Remember - if you set up tier pricing, the price has to be lower than the actual product’s price as it refers to the one unit. (i.e. If you buy 5 products, each will cost $45 rather than 1 product at $50):
To test that your pricing rule is working for a specific customer group you can create a test customer account, add that customer account to the customer group that you want to test and then log in from your front-end with that account to see the changes in pricing for that customer group.
