Applying Discount for Selected Products

| Hi,
I've been using MCS for a few months now...
I want to give 10% off if the user buys set of 4 particular products.
For Eg, if the basket contains Product A, Product B, Product C, Product
D, then i should give 10% discount. Even if one item from the above
set, is not in the basket, then the discount should NOT be applied.
There has to be a way to create this kind of discount.
Thanks in Advance,
Rob

| Hi Rob,
You can create such an expression from any of the various UIs depending on
your version of Commerce Server (BizDesk/Discount Manager/Marketing
Manager) You need to go to the edit discount dialog (not the wizard) and
set the buy expression (aka condition expression) to one which includes
Products A, B, C and D.
Thanks,

I don't seem to be able to do this w/ the BizDesk ( Cs2k2 sp3 ). I am
setting up the criteria and
I'm saying productid = 'xxx' AND productid = 'yyy'
and this does not ever seem to be evaluating to true.
How do I create the expression which requires a list of productid's to
be specified? i.e. product 'xxx' and product 'yyy' must both be in
the basket?

| Hi Quinn,
You'd have to have productId = 'xxxx' OR productId = 'yyyy' (along with
quantity 2)
But I was playing with this a little more and it turns out that a basket
with xxxx and yyyy will qualify this as you want, but a product with 2 xxxx
will also qualify this. There's not a way to force the discount to use
only one xxxx then one yyyy (all the quantity properties you can target are
inventory numbers)
Looks like the only answer would be to write a custom page or pipeline
component that would identify that your basket had all the proper elements,
and then set a TargetingContext property. You could then condition your
discount on that property.
Thanks,
