Hi,

I would like to be able to offer multiple sizes under one product and have quantity discount pricing based on the total of all sizes for the product.

For example if the quantity discount for Product A is as follows:

1 to 11: $5 each

12 to 23: $4 each

24 to 54: $3 each

…and Product A is available in size small, medium & large

…and if a shopper orders 6 small 12 medium and 24 large, I would like the total charge to be $126 (42 pieces of Product A x $3) rather than ($5 x 6 + $4 x $12 + $3 x 24).

I would like to offer tier pricing as an accumulative total of a selection of individual products, not per product.

Also, if I want to be able to order x number of size small and y number of medium on the same page; is this accomplished by grouping products rather than attributes?

I would appriciate any help.

Thanks

You can do this with Zen Cart's built in Quantity Discounting mechanism or with my contribution.

This is quite different from what you just asked. Do you want to total quantities of products A, B and C in this case?
And do you want a total charge more like $5 x 6 + $4 x $12 + $3 x 24, from your example above?

If so, the short answer is you can't do this with my mod or the built-in mechanism.

Also, if I want to be able to order x number of size small and y number of medium on the same page; is this accomplished by grouping products rather than attributes?

This is a completely separate question that you should ask in a new thread on the templating forum here: http://www.zen-cart.com/forumdisplay...ts-Page-Layout

Thanks for the quick reply. What I'd like to do is sell a product such as a Blue T-shirt A with options of different sizes and have the shopper be able to enter the quantity they want of each size on the same page. If the shopper wants 6 small, 12 medium and 24 large, I don't want the shopper to have to enter the quantities for each size on separate pages or as separte items. Ideally I would want them to be able to have an option box on one product description page in which they would enter "6" in the "small" field, "12" in the "medium" field and "24" in the "large" field. I would then like to offer quantity discount that applies to the sum of the t-shirts (small+mediym+large) so in this case 42 shirts. I hope I am explaining it clearly. Does this make sense and is it possible?

The presentation of products on a page and the discounts applied to those products are two separate things.

Get one working then deal with the other.

Thanks - I will post the first half of the question in the other thread. Assuming that part can be done; do you know if the second part is possible with Zen? Is it possible to have a quantity discount apply to the sum of a product's elements - either as attributes of as a group product? From the email above: "offer quantity discount that applies to the sum of the blue t-shirts (small+mediym+large) so in this case 42 shirts". So if the discount levels were 1 to 11, 12 to 23, 24 to 47 and 48+; the total of 42 shirts would place the order into a quantity discount level set for 24 to 47.
Thanks again

Hi All - just installed the Quantity Discounts Module on my Zen Cart v1.3.7.1 but I can't seem to set the addon to control only qty discount only on certain items in the store.

It works for all the items in the store, but I only want qty discount on certain items only.

Can anyone please give me a hint on what I might be missing?

thanks a TON!

Based on your other thread posting, it looks like you decided to go with the built in quantity discounting system, which makes sense if you're discounting quantity purchases of a single item.
