What is the RenderDraw pricing engine?

RenderDraw Pricing Studio is the authoring workspace for the pricing engine. Teams maintain scoped price books and versions, import entries, author ordered conditions and price actions, validate drafts, simulate decisions, and publish versions. A decision trace connects the chosen entry and applied rules to the final unit and extended price.

Questions worth answering.

What is a CPQ pricing engine?

A CPQ pricing engine evaluates product and customer context against price entries and ordered rules to produce a unit price, an extended price, and an explanation. RenderDraw Pricing Studio provides price-book authoring, validation, simulation, publication, and a decision trace for that evaluation.

Can RenderDraw import spreadsheet price lists?

Pricing Studio supports CSV and Excel import preview and mapping. Excel formulas are evaluated to calculated values before import; the original formula is not stored as a row formula. Review diagnostics and apply eligible rows to the active draft before validation and publication.

How do quantity breaks and customer price groups work?

Price entries can be scoped by SKU, customer price group, currency, unit of measure, quantity range, and effective dates. A simulation checks candidate eligibility and applies ordered matching rules. The decision trace explains the selected entry, adjustments, final unit price, and extended total.

Can an external pricing system remain authoritative?

RenderDraw models Internal, External, Hybrid, Fallback, and Shadow authority modes. The selected policy identifies which system supplies authoritative prices and whether an internal fallback or comparison is appropriate. Provider support and downstream behavior depend on the configured connector; authority modes do not imply every provider is enabled.

Are the prices on this page RenderDraw subscription prices?

No. The interactive example uses an illustrative industrial product and sample USD price rules. RenderDraw platform pricing and implementation scope are separate. Use the platform pricing page or talk with RenderDraw about your catalogs, workflows, and integrations.
