Pricing Options - This section addresses two items:

Required Pricing Options - Enables or disables content providers to set their own pricing options for content. This option is only available when a pricing option is defined for the content type.

Clicking the option restricts content providers to selecting the predefined pricing options you have enabled.

If you do not check Require Pricing, content providers can create custom pricing for the content being submitted. Note that content submitted with custom pricing must be manually edited.

Available Pricing Options - Enables or disables predefined pricing options for this content type. You can also go to the Edit Pricing page from this section to edit existing pricing options. Predefined pricing options are listed in the Available Pricing Options section, which is only displayed when at least one pricing option is defined for the content type. You can enable or disable one or more options by checking or clearing the check box next to each Options ID.

If the list of pricing options requires no change or no pricing options exist yet, you can go directly to Step 4.

To create predefined pricing options, see “Creating a Pricing Option” on page 35 for instructions. For a discussion of pricing options and why you would want to create them, see “Pricing Options” on page 29.
