Overview - There are two disctinct type of discounts,
namely Order discounts, and Product (item) discounts. Order
discounts are applied to the entire order, while Product
discounts are selectively applied to individual items in an order.
This function only applies to Order discounts, while Product
discounts are configured using the
Product Maintenance
function. Each order discount is assigned a unique code that must be entered in order to qualify for the discount. In addition, order discounts can be given a date range and can be configured so that they're only used once. Order discounts are calculated based upon the total value of an order, BEFORE taxes and shipping and AFTER product discounts have been applied (if any). You specify what order total will qualify for the order discount by entering a "From" and "To" amount. You also have to enter what percentage or amount of the order total to discount. If the customer then creates an order, and enter a valid discount code, the system will check the order total to see if it qualifies for the selected discount code. If it does, the appropriate amount will be deducted from the order total. In the list of discounts above, the following columns are displayed : Code - Discount code that must be entered by customer. From - Minimum order amount to qualify for discount. To - Maximum order amount to qualify for discount. Perc. - Percentage that will be subtracted from order. Amt. - Amount that will be subtracted from order. Stat - Discount Status. (A)ctive, (I)inactive, (U)sed. Once - Use once only? (Y)es, (N)o. If set to Yes, the discount can only be used once.
