It could be very helpful to have the ability to define a standard override,
which will be displayed on every product automaticaly.

This way, there is no need to activate an override manually, every time a new product is created.

This global setting could be done at: Store administration › Country settings › Country formats
where a checkbox could be added under each country: "display price override per default".

This feature could speed up the workflow a lot, if there are countries which have overrides for most / all products.

Yes global it is. Though it should be under its own admin page not country formats.

Yes, that would be the best way to do it.
Also the multiplier function settings could be placed there.

There are 2 approaches here.

1. Add the global prices to the node form when creating a new product. This way when the new product is saved the global values are saved with the node. (most simpel way)

Problem here is that when you change the global values the prices of the nodes aren't changed.

so proposal 2

2. Add global pricing to a product node with a option to override the global pricing.
This way if you change the global pricing and there is no node override the node (global) pricing will change aswell.

Let me know your thoughts on this.

Hi thanks for your thoughts.

I would sort out 2), because I think every product has a different price anyway.

Proposal 1) sounds fine to me.

My original idea was even simpler: only add a row with blank fields, without predefined numbers.
Just to save the action of creating a country override (but still need to fill in the blanks manually).

For ex. we want always an override for Switzerland. By setting Switzerland as Standard override, the create/edit product page will display a price row "default" and "Switzerland" per default.

The function to pass in a default prices values for the standard overrides we could discuss separately in the thread: "Multiplier". But both functions are strongly linked together and "Multiplier" will be dependent on this one.

PS:
I attached my approach for the layout of the admin page. (see "multiplier" for extensions)

PPS:
This could be a submodule to extend the basic functionality, if needed.
