Hello -
Does anyone know how I would create a product with a 1 time set up fee in CS-Cart.
For example.
A customer is ordering T- Shirts.
I would like them to have the following options
1. Choose to pay a 1 time art set up fee of $25 if they are ordering less than 20 T-Shirts.
2. Choose to get a FREE art set up fee If they order over 20 T-Shirts
3. Choose to use our stock art with NO SET UP FEE
Currently if I set these up as options, CS Cart charges the Art Fee of $25 on all 20 shirts.
($500 instead of $25)
Any help, advice or 3rd party add-on would be appreciated.
We use CS Cart Ultimate. Current version.
Thanks,
Kevin
Us promotions with a negative bonus
EZ-
Thanks for the suggestion. Have been working on this for the last hour.
I could not get the promotion to appear on a specific product detail page or category.
I read and followed the instructions on this page
https://docs.cs-cart.com/latest/user_guide/manage_products/promotions/category_discount.html
Will contact CS-Cart Support for more information. I appreciate your input!
Have a great day.
You should be using a "catalog promotion", not a "cart promotion". You should see results on the products.view page on the customer side. It could be that cs-cart is not allowing a negative bonus. If so, you might have to use a php hook to apply it after the calculate the bonus. I.e. if you want a $6 increase, in price, setup a promotion to discount by $6 and then look at the promotions returned for a product and if it's the promotion you're looking for adjust the bonus to be negatvie $6.
Promotions can be pretty convoluted and require a lot of fiddling to get what you want (I.e. time consuming). But I think you should be able to get there with promotions.
Alternatively you can set the price at the price + $6 and then discount it at $6 * (quantity - 1).
Hey EZ
Those are great suggestions.
After considering all options, our easiest solution
was to create 2 different products.
Product #1 = Shirt with custom art. $25 cost worked into the lower price discounts
(Example if 5 shirts are normally $15 each then we raised the price to $20 each,)
After 20 shirts the art cost is factored out.
Product #2 = Shirt with stock art or just lettering at standard pricing
In the long run, this will be less confusing for our customers.
CS-Cart or a third party should come up with an add-on for this option.
Thanks for your help.
