Abiquo supports reseller pricing with pricing scope and default base prices per datacenter.

This feature is especially useful for private cloud pricing estimates and you can use it with private cloud usage data to display billing dashboards.

For public cloud reseller accounts, you can import price lists for hardware profiles into pricing models. Administrators can display the pricing model to view public cloud price lists.

To implement reseller pricing:

  1. The reseller scope cannot be the unlimited global scope

  2. Create pricing models with the base prices that resellers will pay for virtual resources

  3. Assign a pricing model to each reseller enterprise

For details of how to create pricing models and assign them to customers, see Pricing view

To use reseller pricing:

  1. Log in as the reseller administrator

  2. Go to Pricing view. The reseller pricing model will display. You can edit the pricing model to view the prices but you cannot save changes, unless you have the same scope as the user that created the pricing model

  3. Optionally create cost codes for reseller services. For more details, see Pricing view

  4. To create customer pricing models, click the copy button to clone the reseller pricing model

  5. Change the pricing model as required

    1. For Change all resource prices, enter a percentatge to increase or decrease the base prices, such as reseller markup. For resource prices, the platform applies the percentage change (adding the percentage of the base price the reseller entered to the base price)

    2. Go to Resource prices. Check the new prices or manually enter a new price for any resource. If you enter a price that is lower than the base price, Abiquo will highlight the price with red text.

    3. For Hardware profiles you can onboard and synchronize the price lists of public cloud providers. See Synchronize public cloud price lists

    4. Go to Cost code prices and optionally set prices for this tenant for reseller services

    5. Save the pricing model

    6. Assign the pricing model to customers. Each customer administrator should only be able to display the pricing model for their own tenant.
