This table stores the price information that will be visible in the store.\n\nA price table can be considered an entity that calculates and provides the [computed prices](/en/docs/tracks/pricing-system-architecture) for its SKUs.\n\n## Relationship between price tables and sales channels\n\nPrice tables and [sales channels](/en/docs/tutorials/how-trade-policies-work) serve distinct purposes. Price tables contain the SKU prices, determining how much each item costs in a particular context. Sales channels define the sales context, specifying who will see the price and where it will be displayed.\n\nWhen not linked to sales channels, price tables can be applied in contexts such as [promotions](/en/docs/tutorials/promotion-list-beta) and [customer clusters](/en/docs/tutorials/creating-promotion-for-a-customer-cluster). However, if a table is created to support a sales channel, it must be exclusively associated with that policy. \n\n> ℹ️ A table linked to a sales channel defines the SKU prices for that specific sales context and cannot be used in other contexts.\n\n## Practical example\n\nImagine you need to define different prices for a SKU for three distinct contexts: a specific promotion, a customer cluster, and a sales channel.\n\nTo do this, you'll need to create three separate price tables:\n\n- A table for the promotional price.\n- A table for the price associated with the customer cluster.\n- A table linked to the sales channel, defining the specific price for that sales context.\n\nThe first two price tables are generic and can be used for other promotions or clusters. The third table is exclusive to the sales channel and can only be applied within that specific context."}
