Getting total profit from order

[Master_gray]

Hi everyone,

i'm making a shipping calculator that need to take the total profit and tell my calculator the amount of profit and subtract 50% of the profit value form the shipping cost,
Now what i would like to know is how can i grab only the total profit in the cart so that i can supply my calculator with the profit amount?

Thanks for reading!!

Try

Code Select Expand


if (!class_exists('VirtueMartCart')) require(JPATH_VM_SITE . DS . 'helpers' . DS . 'cart.php');
$cart = VirtueMartCart::getCart();


the use vmdebug('my cart',$cart); use vmdebug('my this',$this) to see if the cart is already available,
Then learn how the prices are stored, set the prices with $cart->setCartPricesMerge

Hi milbo,

Thanks for the help but i have already found out how to get the result i need below you can see what i did:

Code Select Expand

<?php

    $array = unserialize($_SESSION['__vm']['vmcart']); 
    foreach($array->products as $product){

        $price = $product->product_price;
$amount = $product->quantity;
$length = $product->product_length;
$width = $product->product_width;
$height = $product->product_height;
$weight = $product->product_weight;
$zip = $product->zip;
$vat = 14 / 100;
$profit_percent = 10 / 100;
$half_profit_percent = 50 / 100;



// $cost takes the cost price and the quantity of the product and multiply it
$cost = $price * $amount;

// $add_vat show the vat amount of the cost price
$add_vat = $cost * $vat ;

// $vat_price adds the vat amount and the cost price together
$vat_price = $cost + $add_vat;

// $add_profit show the profit amount of the $vat_price price
$add_profit = $vat_price * $profit_percent;

//$half_profit Show you what half of your profit is
$half_profit = $add_profit * $half_profit_percent;

// $total show you the total amount of the product
$total = $vat_price + $add_profit;



echo '<strong>Cost price:</strong> '.$cost
.'<strong>  Vat amount:</strong> '.$add_vat
.'<strong>  Cost with vat:</strong> '.$vat_price
.'<strong>  Profit amount:</strong> '.$add_profit
.'<strong>  Shipping discount:</strong> '.$half_profit
.'<strong>  Total amount:</strong>  '.$total
.'<br>'.$length
.'  '.$width
.'  '.$height
.'  '.$weight
.'<br><br>';
echo $zip;

}

?>

But i have one more question how can i get the zip for the cart data array - i tried to use

Code Select Expand

$zip = $product->zip; because i can see the user zip in the array when someone is logged in but it seems to me that i can't grab it - any ideas?

[Milbo]

$cart->BT['zip'] or so

use vmdebug('my cart',$cart); to see what the cart already provides

Hi everyone,

I found a way to get the zip from the session if anyone would like to know (See below)

Code Select Expand

<?php

//This will get the zip out of the cart!!!!!!

$array = unserialize($_SESSION['__vm']['vmcart']); 
foreach($array->BT as $key => $zip){
 if ($key == 'zip'){
echo $zip;
}
}
?>

if you need details on how this works PM me i will be glad to help.

Hope i can help someone with this,
Regards.
