Hi ,

I just had a couple of question on FP1.I have a category A with
subcategory B which has a sub category C under which there I have a
product P

1)If i set a expression in discount manager which says apply discount on
all products whose product.Catgories contains A.Will it apply on product P
under C?

2)If I set a Simple discount Type discount on A which says 50 % off will
it apply on all products Under C also?

Regards,
Sreekanth

The answer is yes in both cases. Option 2 should create the type of
expression you indicate for option 1 (using 'contains' operator). You can
verify this by looking at the expression body in the mktg_expression table.

QueryCatalogInfo is the component that retrieves the list of ancestor
categories and populates that into the line item dictionary.

Hi david,

Thanks for the reply.This will help us save a lot of time.Can I bother you
with a couple of more questions.

1) In the same scenario category A has sub category b which in turn has 2
sub categories C and D.If i say product.categories contains A and and
product.categories does not contain D will it apply on products under C
only ?

If a product p1 is in both C and D will it get discount?

2)Will discounts applied on a base catalog be applicable to virtual
catalogs also?

Sreekanth
