TOPIC: Discount Options

Hi

I have three questions please relating to discounts:

Is it possible to make an Early Bird discount optional? We'd like to make our early bird non-refundable, so if people don't want that, then they can take up the full price option?

Can Promo Codes be timeframed to expire on a certain date?

Most importantly is it possible to change the arithmetic on how cumulative percentages are applied? If for example someone had a Group Discount of 10% , and an Early Bird of 15%, the system works it out as 25% of the amount, rather than applying 10%, then 15% of that figure. There is a difference in the final amounts, doing the sum twice.

Many thanks

Dave

We already answered your ticket (note, a double post support request isn't needed. Ticket OR forum next time please)

...but for those playing along at home, here's the answer again.

Hello!

1) No, the early bird discount applies automatically based on the date... and nothing else.

2) Yes, each discount code has an OPTIONAL date/time setup. You can set the date/time when it becomes active AND when it expires.

3) You control calculations. First, in the admin listing of events, there is a column with a link "Fee Ordering". Click this and you can drag-n-drop all fee/discount items related to the event. This is important when using % calculations as when the % applies does matter. So you can order things to how you want them to work.

Also, make sure to check the bottom of the first tab of configuration as you can set all discount/fee items (early bird, late fee, member discount, etc) to how they are used in a group registration. Set if the fee/discount is applied once for the group or to each member separately.
