Assign calculation rule also to subcategories

[gba]

Hello all!

I want to add a surcharge to the product prices:
Generally it shall be 10%.
Products in Category_Y and its subcategories shall have 5% surcharge, and products in Category_Z and its subcategories 50%.

How do I configure the calculation rule(s), to achieve that without having to assign each subcategory to the respective rule?

Thank you very much for your help in advance!

Best regards,
Gerald

I really dont understand your request.

What could be more easy than creating 2 rules and assigning the respective categories or subcategories inside each rule?

What you expect a programmer to improve there in a function which is already so simple.

Hi!

Thank you for your reply.

What I need is not that easy, as it seems to you.
Actually there need to be three rules (if I am right): one for 10% surcharge, one for 5% and one for 50%.

Then there are these three categories as stated above.
The subcategories are automatically updated daily via CSV import. It is not possible to assign all the >1100 categories to the rules manually every day.
Therefore I am looking for a solution to tell VM, that the rules should apply not only to the assigned categories, but also to their subcategories, no matter how deep the hierarchy below them is.

I hope this is more clearly now.

Best regards,
Gerald
