The Product price will be calculated as per the Flat Pricing, Dynamic Pricing & Canvas Threshold values inserted in the backend in the product details page.
-> If the canvas area value is less than Threshold, the Product Price will calculate: Flat Price X Qty.
-> If the canvas area value is greater than or equal to the Threshold, the Product Price will calculate:
(l X b X Dynamic Price) X Qty
– Suppose from the backend the following Value are inserted:
Flat Pricing: 15
Dynamic Pricing: 35
Canvas Threshold Value: 0.05 (meter)
Flat Rate:
Now, if you inserted Width: 0.10 & Height: 0.15, Flat Rate would calculate.
Area: 0.10*0.15 = 015 which is less than the Threshold Value of 0.05 m.
So the Flat Rate will calculate Product Price (100€) + Flat Rate(15€) = 115€
Dynamic Rate:
Now, if you inserted Width: 0.42 & Height: 0.42, the Dynamic Rate would calculate.
Area: 0.42*0.42 = 1764 is greater than or equal to the Threshold of 0.05 m.
So the Dynamic Rate will calculate: 100€ + (0.1764*35€)*1 = 100€ + 6.17€ = 106.17
