Discount on weight

[rogy]

Hello VM Forum

Have products (parent / child) which can be ordered by kg in 4 weights (100kg, 300 kg, 500 kg, 1000 kg) . Graduated into 4 child products. Is also stored in "Products mass and weights".

100 kg no discount
300 kg = 8%
500 kg = 13%
1000 kg = 18%


There should be the possibility to order various products from different categories and depending on the kg there is a discount (e.g. 2 childproducts (different categories) with 500kg each also gives 18% (together 1000kg).

Is there a solution?

If You you look at AwoCoupon I think You will find what You need.

ISTRAXX has a plugin that handles quantity prices.

Thank's Jörgen

AwoCoupon:
Cannot discount based on weight.  You can discount based on
- vendor
- manufacturer
- category
- product
- product attribute (this is the lowest it goes).

Maybe there is an other solution:
See the product page:
https://kuenzle-farma.ch/konventionell/rinder-1/alca-sabomin-06-plus-pellets-1000-kg-391-detail

Parten with child product.

For each Child Product i get different discounts
100 kg no discount
300 kg = 8%
500 kg = 13%
1000 kg = 18%

But if i compare two weight from different products:

https://kuenzle-farma.ch/konventionell/rinder-1/alca-sabomin-06-plus-pulver-detail

1 Product: 500 kg = 13%
2 Product: 500 kg = 13%

Total in the Shopping Cart: 1000 kg = 18%.

You sell in quantities of KG, right. Use quantity discount per KG, you do not have to look at the actual weight variable right ? If the quantity is 2 then discount for 2 kg am i right?

Not realy, my client have product build in parent and childproducts. There are 4 kinds of product (100, 300, 500, 1000kg). The Tab ""Products mass and weights" is just for the shipping cost. See the link of the product.

There must be a way of selling like, 100 kg (100 qty), 300 kg (300 qty), 500 kg (500 qty), 1000 kg (1000 qty).

Sell in steps, 100 step, 300 step, 500 step and 1000 step, qty is 1kg.

Should this not work ?

The solution can be to sold per KG. and only use 1 product.
You use a option list to set your real quantities.
For eg a custommissed list
100
300
500
1000
You set quantity steps to 100, so customer can only buy 100 x X Kg
This solve another problem,  the stock can be handel correctly.
TO do this :
- you need to use a new layout. You can copy and rename the original Vm files or your current template layout in productdetails
- use a new sublayout addtocart button to replace quantity input with your list of quantity.

Note that the price is updated in live, if you do all correctly.

Using child products should also work, stock would be ok, but your suggestion sounds more flexible. Just needs some custom programming in the template.
