ECMS Product Discounts

From NewHaven Software Wiki

To setup a discount first create a discount table. Discount tables are how you define the quantity and discount type. For example, say you wanted to offer the following discount:

1-9 = $4.99/each

10-49 = $3.49/each

50+ = $2.49/each

You can set your product price in CMS or eCMS to $4.99 and then use a discount table to apply the discounts for 10-49 and 50+. You would then setup a discount table wit two rows, one for the 10-49 and one for any number of products above 50. Navigat to eCMS >> Inventory >> Add Discount Table and give your table a name and a description to help you identify it (the description will not be viewable by the customer). Then select the quantity for the discount, create a lable

Qty	Label	Discount
10	10 - 49 products	3.49 (new product price)
Discount for each additional product above qty:
50	50 or more products	2.49 (new product price)

Adding a more granular set of discounts would look like:

Qty	Label	Discount
10	10 - 19 products	3.49 (new product price)
20	20 - 29 products	3.29 (new product price)
30	30 - 39 products	2.99 (new product price)
40	40 - 49 products	2.69 (new product price)
Discount for each additional product above qty:
50	50 or more products	2.49 (new product price)

You don't have to set a new price for the product, you can also take a certain amount off the product price, a percentage off the product price, or give a number of products free.

Qty	Label	Discount
10	10 - 19 products	5 (percentage off product price)
20	20 - 29 products	7 (percentage off product price)
30	30 - 39 products	10 (percentage off product price)
40	40 - 49 products	15 (percentage off product price)
Discount for each additional product above qty:
50	50 or more products	20 (percentage off product price)

Give a products for free for every 10 products they buy (we will use a discount group to apply this to every 10 products):

Qty	Label	Discount
10	Free product for every 10 purchashed	1 (number of free product(s))

The next step would be to setup a discount group so you can select which products the discount applies to.
