Quantity Discounts for 1.3

This is a very nice mod, sucks you have ot charge for an extention that acutally shows our customers what there discount is

Thank you! Very nice mod.
I'm not sure I can do what I need to do. I would like to give a discount when purchasing 6 items from category one, and a different discount when purchasing 6 items from any category. Is that possible? Also is there any way to have the discount taken after coupons have been used. Considering most discount coupons come and go, it's difficult setting quantity discounts when coupons are used unless the quantity discounts are changed everytime a new coupons is activated.

Thanks again for an otherwise great mod, and any support you can provide.

Make your "any category" discounts the ones you set in the admin panel, and for category 1, use the apply_special_category_discount() exit. See the help for examples.

Not really. Coupons are applied to the order; quantity discounts are provided to products within the order.

Hi,

Great mod, thanks!

Is it not possible to add such an option that this does not do a universal discount on all items but we can choose which items should have a quantity discount?

I have chosen the per item discount but now nomatter what item when 10 of the same item is added to the cart they get the same percentage off. I would like to add the discount to specific items only.

Thanks in advance!

Use exclude_product(). Look at the help - several examples of how to do this are provided.

By help do you mean the readme? Where is the help file?

Thanks

Click my sig. Scroll down. Click Quantity Discounts.

Thanks much appreciated!

Okay, I've uploaded the folder "discount_1.6" to the root directory, but when I look in Modules->Order Total I don't see it.

Any suggestions?

Double check where the files landed. You need everything under discount_1.6 to be in the corresponding place under root. For instance, you should have /<root>/includes/modules/order_total/ot_quantity_discounts.php

That's what i thought, but the directions said upload the folder to root. Sorry for the blonde moment!

Okay, another question. I hope it's as easy as the last.

Is it possible to have different price breaks for different catagories?

Catagory A has buy 100 cat. A items, get 25% off

Catagory B has buy 50 different cat. B items, get $10. off

Catagory C = no discounts.

Yep. Click my signature, find the help and read about the user exits (apply_special_category_discounts is the one you seem to want).

Hi

I have installed this mod but I have a specific requirement and wondered of it is possible to do what I want using the following example:

I have the mod set to discount by category.

I am selling METAL products.

The METAL products consist of several different subcategories below one main category.

I wish to offer a 10% discount on purchase of 3 METAL products.

Is it possible to combine the products from each of the subcategories to achieve the 10 products needed for the discount.

In other words for example:

2xMetal Product 1
+
1xMetal Product 2
+
1xMetal Product 3

= 10% discount.

METAL TOP CAT
l
Metal Sub Cat A -> Metal Product 1, Metal Product 2, ...
l
Metal Sub Cat B -> Metal Product 3, Metal Product 4, ...

Is there a way I can do this with this mod please? I hope you can understand me!!! :)

Thanks

Rob

My question is about importing quantity discounts from a flat file database.

In my source database I have a field that shows 3 quantity discount prices.

example:

1 or more = .76
3 or more = .46
6 or more = .34

the data entry in my source file for this example appears like this:

0.76:1:0.46:3:0.34:6

I have over 5,000 of these, how do I get them into the SQL database?

If this is your discounting model, you don't want this contribution. You should use native quantity discounts and import your data using phpMyAdmin or perhaps just creating a .sql script from your data.

thanks - is there a quick and dirty way to explain how I might do that?
