This section is intended for both site owners and designers of sites where the Catalog and Shopping Cart is enabled and for which discounts are enabled.

Note: please see Products for how to apply a reduce price if more than a certain amount of a given Product is ordered.

• These discounts apply to an entire order, taxable and non-taxable.
• Each discount has a specific code associated with it.
• Discounts can either be a flat amount (e.g, $50 off of orders over $200), or a percentage (5% off of orders over $100).
• Discounts can be limited to a single shipping zone or all orders (e.g, AZ residents can get discount 'AZ10').
• Discounts can be applied only if the orders costs more that a fixed amount (before taxes and shipping).

Setting up Discounts:

• Select the Discount Codes button.
• Enter the information defining the discount:
  • The code you want the visitor to enter to qualify.
  • If the discount is limited to a shipping zone, the zone number. Note: the system does not check that the zone exists since you can enter the zone information after setting up the discount
  • Enter the minimum which the pre-tax cost of the order must exceed before the discount will apply.  Once this amount is exceeded percentage discounts apply to the whole cost.  Tax, if any, is applied to the new net cost.
  • Select the discount type: Flat (e.g, $50 off the top) or Percentage (e.g., 0.05 for 5%).
  • Enter the amount of the discount (e.g., 50.00 or 0.05 for our two examples). 
  • If you want to apply discount to several shipping zones enter the second zone.
• Press the 'Add' button. 
• To change a discount select it using the search function, make the changes and then click Update.
• To remove a discount, select it, confirm the delete and then click Delete button
• Changes are effective immediately, but do not apply to orders in the payment process.
