This extension allows to set a minimal price to a product (MAP).
Magento 2 Open Source or Commerce edition is required.
Run the following composer command:
composer require opengento/module-minimal-price
Run the following magento command:
bin/magento setup:upgrade
If you are in production mode, do not forget to recompile and redeploy the static resources.
Define the minimal price availability for a product. The price is capped to the minimal value if any special price, tier price or catalog rule tries to price down the limit.
minimal_price, available in the "Advanced Pricing" group.
If you use the native import export tool provided with Magento, the attribute minimal_price is mapped with the field map_price.
While working on this project, it appears that Magento already has an attribute with code "minimal_price".
This attribute exists in Magento since forever. It's actually a system attribute which is not visible through the admin panel.
There is also a few method that refers to this attribute, such as:
- \Magento\Catalog\Model\Product::getMinimalPrice (Called in \Magento\Catalog\Pricing\Price\FinalPrice::getMinimalPrice)
- \Magento\Catalog\Model\ResourceModel\Product\Collection::joinMinimalPrice (Never called)
This attribute and methods are not used in the Commerce edition neither.
There is also some trace there: \Magento\CatalogImportExport\Model\Export\Product:
...
'minimal_price' => 'map_price',
'msrp' => 'msrp_price',
'msrp_enabled' => 'map_enabled',
...
This suggests that minimal_price is mapped as "Minimum Advertised Price" (MAP). MAP policies are legal documents brands
use to define the lowest legally possible advertised price for a product. It does set the minimum, some penalties may be
applied if a seller violates the MAP.
This module updates and reuse this existing attribute in order to give it a true usage.
