Feature Details: This Miva Merchant module admin interface provides an easy to enter
"from - to cost" format. You can literally have as
many ranges as you want to type in. See the image
below for example syntax. You can either use actual
values to replace the base price or percent of price to
be subtracted from the product base price. These price
differentials are added directly in the admin interface
under the product edit screen. You only apply these
price differentials in the products that you want to use
them.
This module applies the price in your low,
high, cost groupings. If you do not include a grouping at the single
item level, it will use the method for pricing in your store. It only
activates if you include a low, high, cost grouping.
For example:
6|10|12%
11|20|14%
21|999|16%
The module only uses price groups when using the percent
off discount calculation. If you enter fixed prices for the
quantity ranges, then price groups are ignored. Keep in mind
that the percent discounts will be over and above the discount
already given if you are using price groups.
In the compiled version you can opt to not give the price group
an additional discount above the volume pricing. You can
even make all or some price groups not eligible for volume
pricing and hide the table from them completely. Conversely,
you can exclude everybody from volume pricing except
specific price group members. Customers must be logged in
to identify the price group they are in before the volume
pricing module can qualify or disqualify them from volume
pricing if you are using the price group restrictions.
The percentage discounting method subtracts the
percent discount from the base price. Base price does
not include attribute prices. To apply the percentage,
simply include the percent symbol (%) in the line. If
you are using cost method for your store (other than
price groups), you will not be able to use the percentage
discounting method. Instead, use the actual value method.
If you are using another third party module which overrides prices in
the basket and recomputes them using the price in the product record, you
will not be able to use this module. Other third party modules will not
recognize that it needs to apply the calculations in this module.
The module recognizes identical products. Hence different
attributes will change the product enough that the discount
won't apply. For example 3 red shirts and 6 blue shirts will
not give the discount of 9 shirts. Rather, they'll get the discount
rate of 3 for one of the line items and 6 for the other.
The module for the compiled version of merchant DOES have the
ability to amalgamate quantities so in the example above as
long as the product code is the same, all 9 items would get the
volume discount for 9 items. You have the option for each
product code to amalgamate quantities or treat varied attributes
as different products.
You can optionally include a
table on the product (PROD) and
category (CTGY) screens displaying the rates as generated
from the products' volume discount record. You can see an
example of that with our best seller products. You can optionally
have a quantity input in that table display. These options are
configured through admin.
New in the compiled version is compatibility interface with the OpenUI Tokens and Viking
Coders product template module. Place the table display
on the product page so that it better fits your desired look.
New configuration options added for the table display. Also,
included the ability to display the lowest price in place of the standard
price when volume pricing effects the product, the store is
using the OpenUI, the store is version 4.14 or higher, and there
are no other 3rd party modules effecting the price display. This
feature is useful if you want to have a sale on one or more
items. Simply set the volume to 1 or more with a specific
discount percentage and you have a sale with as low as display. You
can use the token %product_price_f% to further highlight that with
a strike thru. To make this feature even more useful, you
can enter a starting and ending date for the sale so that it
will start and end automatically. For ease of entry, a
flat file import module is included. You can put all product
codes in the flat file or use an asterisk (*) and one line
of "rules" to apply the volume price to all products in the
store. Create a storewide sale, e.g. 10% off in seconds with
a specific start and stop date. Then just as quickly remove
all settings at your leisure after the sale. There is also
a volume price export so you can
quickly build your flat file, then edit or add to it. This
is useful when you want to have a storewide sale on all products but
retain volume prices on your regularly discounted items.
Export the volume prices. Import your sale settings. Import
your volume discounts on the few you want to maintain at
pre-sale prices.
