On Odoo9e,
The odoo documentation states https://www.odoo.com/documentation/user/9.0/inventory/settings/products/variants.html
"Pricing: The default price of a product is computed using the price of the product template and add the optional extra price on each dimension of the variant. This way, variant prices are easier to maintain since you don't have to set the price for every variant. However, it's possible to create pricelist rules to fix price per variants too."
How is this done? There is no where on the variant page to use a pricelist, the price list only appears on the base item.
