Need discount per orderline, not for entire cart!

[grimblestyx]

I'm having trouble trying to set up the following type of discount, can anyone help?

The problem is:-

Customer adds product_A in to their basket with a quantity of 3. The catalog should give them 30% off for a quantity of 3. The customer then adds another product_A with a quantity of 1. This should charge the normal amount for this particular order line, but what it actually does is discount both product lines, taking 30% from both product lines.

Is there a way to stop the discount working across the whole cart, and just working on each product line?

I also tried working around this with quantity based pricing, but had the same issue.

I have done something like this in the past. What i did was change those particular products and add them to a new product group.

Then do the discount on that group instead.

Personalised Products

Could you clarify that a little?

We produce personalised goods, so we can apply discounts if someone wants 3 identical copies of a product which is personalised. If they then add the same product again, with a quantity of 1, I don't want the discount to be also applied to that single product. So something like this:-

3 x t-shirt (text on shirt might say "Don't eat cheese!") this gets a 30% discount.
Then they add to the cart:-
1 x t-shirt (text on shirt might day "Monkeys are evil!" this is the standard price, with no discount.

So they are both the same product, just with differing personalisation. And the discount only applys to a cart line that is of a quantity of 3. I'd also like to apply different discounts for 4, 6 and 8 items. The problem is the discounting is being done for an entire cart, instead of per cart line.

I have a similar problem. Can anyone help ? I am developing a site that sells beads and findings. We have multiple discount levels at different trigger points based on quantity purchased but we need to make this work on a per product basis. The workaround is to create a different product group for each product to which the discount should apply. This really is not a viable option with 3000 beads!

The beta of the site is at http://www.wimborne-web-site-design.co.uk

If you are on Business or Developer, then you can use the 'Prices' tab to generate quantity based pricing on a per-product basis.

Kind regards,
