Products: Volume Discount Rules

There are a few key settings which govern how volume discounts are applied.

1

Type

The type of discount to apply

% (percentage)

Apply the specified percent
e.g. if the price is £100 a 2% discount would make the price £98

Currency

Apply the discount as the amount specified
e.g. if the price is £100 a £10 discount would set the price to £90

2

Apply To

This determines how to distribute the discount across the items.

All items

Distribute the discount to all items in the transaction
e.g. (using the bands from the image below)
if there are 8 items in the transaction, ALL 8 items receive 8% discount

Base price: £100

Items	Discount	Price
1 - 8	8%	£92 each

Only Items in band

In this mode, the discount is variable and only applied within the bands
e.g.  (again, using the bands from the image below) 
If there are 8 items in the transaction:

Items	Discount	Price
1 - 2	0%	£100 each
3 - 5	5%	£95 each
6 - 8	8%	£92 each
