Group Discounts?

[swguy]

The Quantity Discounts module allows you to customize discounts by category or product id.

That's fine, but it has nothing to do with group discounts.

You can apply Quantity Discounts only to certain groups if you wish. That's why I suggested it as an alternative.

thanks, I'll take a look at it.

I installed it, but I don't see how to apply it to certain groups.

See if it does what you want first, then if it does, add the logic to filter groups. PM me if you need help.

What does the terminology "add the logic to filter groups" mean? Thanks! Annnddd... How do you do it?

[swguy]

The terminology "add logic to filter groups" means to modify the program so that only certain groups get the discount.

Is there any way to take a group discount and make it visible while shopping? Instead of the final part of the shopping cart?

[swguy]

I was actually thinking this weekend about creating a program that
did this. The problem is that it would only work if the customer
was logged in (because you need to know where he lives to
do the taxes), and it would have to guess about shipping (assuming
there were multiple shipping levels). You could do it net of
shipping I guess, but people get irritated when you guess at one
total and then show them a higher final total, so I'm not sure it's
a good idea.

You'd really be better off just including some code at the bottom
of the product info page describing your group discount policy.
