    Default Coupon Codes

    Hiya All,
    Is it possible to configure the "Discount Coupon" at checkout to take coupon codes from 1001 - 6001? (Without entering them in one at a time, of course )

    Thanks,
    Kel

    I am thinking if I can't define a sequence of numbers for the promotion code. I could set it/disable it to take any number. That is ok for what I am doing. Does anyone know how to do that?

    Thanks,
    Kel

    Zen Cart is designed to accept 1 Discount Coupon code per Order, at this time ...

    You would have a lot of customization to do to allow 2 or more Discount Coupons on the same order ...

    It seems most all shopping carts work that way.

    Bump from the grave, but ktessitore if you are still wondering about this, you may have been misunderstood above. Are you asking: can you have a range of numbers that will always be accepted as valid coupon codes?

    If yes: Sure you could. But it's definitely going to be a workaround. I'd "create" the coupons one-by-one, but using a script to loop through and add every number as a new row in the "coupons" table.

    I'm currently using this method, but for a different purpose... generating random one-time use coupon codes to be distributed through e-mail marketing. Sure, I have 1000+ coupons listed in coupon admin but it doesn't seem to be hurting anything. The only drawback so far is there is no good way to see a summary of how many coupons have been used, what % of sales use coupons, how many active coupons are still unclaimed, etc.
