Title: How to set discount for particular shopper for all products in store at once?
Post by: metmusic on August 18, 2016, 15:49:30 PM
Hi all,

I'd like to simply set discount for one particular shopper for all products in store.

1. I've created shopper group called "5% for all products"
2. I've created calculation rule called "5% discount" and applied it for group "5% for all products"
3. I could add new price for each product with new calculation rule "5% discount" only for group "5% for all products" however it will be very

hard job... Need to create new price for hundreds of products

Is there any other way to do that?

Thanks in advance

but if your discount rule is Product Category -> availa ble for all then if your in the shopper group called "5% for all products" then it will be applied

nothing to explain .. login as a "5% for all products" shopper group member and the discount should be there

Not so easy... I guess. All products in store need to have applied calculating rule "5% discount" assigned to / applicable i.e. for shopper group "5% for all products", right?
It also requires adding calculating rule for each product in store, right? Am I missing something?

It's not a problem assign one or two users to  shopper group "5% for all products", problem is to apply calculating rule "5% discount" for hundreds of items...

As I mentioned - these steps are needed, right?:

1. Create shopper group called i.e. "5% for all products"
2. Create calculation rule called "5% discount"
3. For each item in store add new price using calculating rule "5% discount" and apply it for group "5% for all products".

Am I thinking correctly? Step 3 is a horror in big store...

If calculation rule might be applied to shopper group or particular shopper there will be no problem to do it at once for all products but in Virtuemart case calculation rule is set for item, not shopper - that's the problem.
