Quantity Discounts using attributes

[buildingblocks]

I'm trying to set up quantity discounts using attributes. It would be easier to use price manager to do this but easy populate won't import the needed fields from price manager and I'm hoping quantity discounts using attributes will work with easy populate.

I've been reading and trying various settings all morning and afternoon trying to get this to work but things are not calculating correctly. My screenshots show what's on the test store front and in attribute controller.

For example when I tick the bullet for quantity 1-11 and put one item in the basket the unit price doubles. Is what I am trying to do possible? I've worked with attributes previously but not for setting quantity discounts.

Any help would be appreciated.

You must be entering this in the factor box...
Try entering into the offset box 1 and/or -1

Thanks. I tried adding 1 and then -1 to the offset field and it's not calculating right. The price is doubling. These are the attribute settings I have for quantity 1-11

These are the attribute settings I have for quantity 12-29

the rest of the attributes have the same settings as 12-29 except for the price field/order

Ok, I stepped away from it for a while and came back to try again. Crossing my fingers this is it.

I started fresh and gave the product one attribute, option name "Choose your Savings" and making the option type "bullet". Next I went to attribute controller assigning these settings

price
-2.96

Attributes Qty Price Discount:
11:2.96,29:2.54,95:1.86,96:1.69

Now when I add products to cart in quantities of

1 through 11 - the unit cost shows as 2.96 and calculates correctly

Random testing by adding various amounts to cart I did see the unit price change according to what the quantities table shows and calculated correctly. So far it seems to be working correctly. I'll have to test some more to be sure taxes are working to.

This is how it looks in the store front. It doesn't look so hot so will have to work on that and see if I can do something with it. Is it possible to have the table display in the listing instead of having a link with a popup?

I tested some more and all seems to be working correctly including taxes. Maybe I missed it but I didn't find a setting in admin to allow the quantity table to display on the product page instead of the link so I pulled the table in using an iframe and using styles I was able to hide unwanted elements.

This is how it looks now.
