We are using SalesCart Pro with the Product Management Plugin. We have multiple products that receive discounts at varying quantity levels. For example, item 1234 receives qty discounts of 5% with qtys of 5-9, 10% with qtys of 10-14, and 15% with qtys of 15 or more. Item 5678 receives 5% with qtys of 8-12, 10% with qtys of 13-17, and 15% with qtys of 18 or more. Even though our products receive the same quantity discount (5%, 10% or 15%), they receive them at different quantity levels. How can I set this up to function properly? Or maybe a better question is, can this be accomplished using the dynamic database? If so, how?

I believe I found a solution:

I created six fields in the products db named level1, level2, level3, discount1, discount2, and discount3. I set discount1, discount2, and discount3 field types to Number/Percent.

In the Discount tab of the SalesCart component on the more.asp page, I selected "Use % Discount". Under Volume Discount, I inserted the following in the level 1 field: <%=FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"Level1")%> and <%=FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"Discount1")%> in the % or Abs Amt field. I did the same for each of the subsequent fields, i.e. level 2, level 3, etc.

Yes that will work.
