Cart Price Rules and Vouchers
In CoreShop, Cart Price Rules provide a mechanism to apply discounts to a shopping cart. This is achieved by creating Cart Price Rules and then adding Cart Price Rule Vouchers to the cart. For a detailed understanding of Cart Price Rules, refer to Cart Price Rules.
Discount and Surcharge Application
Discounts or surcharges from Cart Price Rules are applied as Adjustments to the order. To ensure correct tax calculations, these discounts or surcharges are applied proportionally to the items in the cart.
Example Scenario
Consider a cart with the following items:
| Product | Quantity | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Product A | 1 | €50.00 |
| Product B | 1 | €200.00 |
Product A accounts for 20% of the total price, while Product B accounts for 80%.
If a discount of €50 is applied, it will be distributed as follows:
| Product | Quantity | Price | Discount | Discounted Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Product A | 1 | €50.00 | €10.00 | €40.00 |
| Product B | 1 | €200.00 | €40.00 | €160.00 |
This example demonstrates how the discount is proportionally divided among the products based on their contribution to the total cart value. This proportional allocation ensures that the discount is fairly distributed and that tax calculations remain accurate.
