Prior to the release of v7 I had been under the impression that with Order Level discounts I could set a Product Group and exclude the items in that group from the Order value calculation.
Now that I have v7 I find this not to be the case, unless I'm missing something?
Unfortunately, using the Cart Contents discounts are less than ideal since we would need to define too many different levels to get a sliding scale of % discounts triggered at multiple price points, (for different product groups). This presents the shopper with a bewildering array of discounts.
We want to say:
5% off all online orders over £1,500
10% off all online orders over £2,500
15% off Microsoft Bootcamps over £3,000
(discount applies to total order value in shopping cart at time of order, before tax and shipping charges are applied. Excludes Exam Vouchers.)
But this would end up as:
10% off CBT orders over £2,500
5% off CBT orders over £1,500
15% off Microsoft Bootcamps over £3,000
10% off Microsoft Bootcamps over £3,000
5% off Microsoft Bootcamps over £3,000
(discount applies to total order value in shopping cart at time of order, before tax and shipping charges are applied. Excludes Exam Vouchers.)
and we want to get more complex than this if possible...
Could we not have a system whereby one could list the product groups for which an Order Level discount applies, or conversely the product groups that should be excluded?
