# Custom Pricing

Custom pricing is the flagship feature of Draft Order Magic. Set different prices for each line item without changing your product catalog—perfect for B2B, wholesale, and negotiated quotes.

### How it works

When you set a custom price in Draft Order Magic:

* ✅ **Only affects this draft order** - Your catalog price remains unchanged
* ✅ **Saves with the draft order** - Custom price persists if you edit later
* ✅ **Shows in Shopify admin** - The custom price appears in Shopify's draft order details
* ✅ **Carries through to order** - If customer pays, they pay the custom price
* ✅ **Visible on invoice** - Custom price shows on PDFs and invoices

### Setting custom pricing

#### On individual line items

1. Open a draft order in the Draft Order Magic editor
2. Find the line item you want to adjust
3. Click on the **Price** field
4. Enter your custom price

#### Bulk pricing changes

To change prices on multiple items:

1. Click on each items checkbox
2. Click the 'Update Price' button that appears at the top of the table
3. Enter new price in the modal price field.

For very large orders, consider:

* Using CSV import with pricing data
* Creating a template with common pricing

### Common use cases

* B2B negotiated pricing
* Wholesale pricing tiers
* Package/bundle pricing
* Sample or evaluation pricing

### Documenting pricing

Use [line item properties](https://github.com/horselditty/draft-order-docs/blob/main/product/editor/line-item-properties/README.md) or [order attributes](https://github.com/horselditty/draft-order-docs/blob/main/product/editor/order-attributes/README.md) to document custom pricing decisions.

**Example line item property:**

```
Wholesale Tier: Gold (40% off)
```

**Example order attribute:**

```
Pricing Sheet: 2026-Q2-Enterprise
Approved By: Sales Manager
```

### Discounts vs. custom pricing

Draft Order Magic sets custom prices. For percentage-based discounts:

#### Use Draft Order Magic when:

* Each item needs a different price
* Pricing is negotiated per customer
* You want precise control per line item
* Building custom B2B quotes

#### Use Shopify discounts when:

* Applying same percentage to entire order
* Using discount codes customers can apply
* Want automatic discount rules
* Tracking promotional campaigns

{% hint style="info" %}
Draft Order Magic and Shopify discount codes can be used together. The discount code applies after your custom prices are set.
