Introduction

Admins are now able to assign a prorated discount to a single day event so that the customer can accurately get discounted considering the number of sessions that have already taken place.

Admin Side

Creating the prorate Discount

In order to set up a prorate discount you will first have to navigate to the settings menu and located under assignments, select "Discounts".

From here you will want to create a new discount by selecting the "Add New Discount" button located in the upper right corner.

Fill out the required information of Title, Amount, Start/End Date, Quantity, and any other specifics you'd like to apply to the general discount (ie using a percentage discount rather than a fixed amount). Be sure to also add the messages you'd like to display to the customer in the shopping cart to notify them when the discount is applied to a specific product. For our example, we will be offering a discount amount of $5 if someone purchases the product after one to five days have passed since the event started.

Next, select the "Edit Retirements" cogwheel.

Here you will be able to add the prorate requirements which dictate whether or not the discount is applied to the Event. Begin by Selecting "Add New Requirement".

Fill in the required fields, giving the requirement a Title, Discount Type of "Event Sessions Passed", and the ranged of missed sessions for which the discount applies to the event. Notice in our example if the customer misses one to five days of the event, they will receive a calculated Prate Discount applied to their purchase.

Cart Side

On the Cart side, the customer will be able to see your Event, and as you will notice in our example the message we added to the Prorate Discount is present on the item. Your Customer can then add the product to their cart. In our Example the Event start date occurred yesterday, so the customer should receive the Prorate Discount assigned.

Once the Event is added into the Cart, you can then view the cart details and you will notice the Prorate discount has been applied, considering in our example they missed the first day of the event and they are given the $5 discount, they are now only being charged $60. They can select checkout form here and continue with the checkout process.

When the Customer comes to the Process Payments page, they will also be able to view the applied discount calculation under the Order review. Simply select Process payment for the calculated amount to be applied to the payment type, which in this example is a credit card.
