Define a new type of promotional code granting free shipment to a selected group of end customers |
Solution
A new type of promotional code grants free shipment for one or several (paid) shipment modes. You benefit from all the set-up possibilities provided by the promotional codes, in particular:
Choice of target type
Public (partner code)
Single usage code
Indicator
Sales period (period during which the promotional code can be used)
Minimum order amount
Quota
Logo
The internet user enters the promotional code in the same field as promotional codes granting some order rebate. The order summary page displays the price reduction (due to the free shipment) in the same way as for other promotional codes. The initial shipment fee amount is displayed in the delivery method section and the granted discount in the Voucher and promotional codes section.
Getting started
Assign a producer/provider
Without price breakdown
Assign a main producer and/or an invoice producer as illustrated below:
The assignment of producers/providers to products already exists in previous releases and hasn't been modified during the development of the current feature.
With price breakdown
Assign a partner/provider to each price component as illustrated below:
You can define that the partner/provider is identical to the producer of the product. This will always be the case for the ticket base price and may be the case for other price components
Enable the display in the document template
Set the new flag of the used document template to true, as illustrated below:
Remarks
Enabling the flag above doesn't create any requirements on the set-up or on the orders created. For example:
- Assigning producers/providers to products or price components remains optional
- An order can still mix products with and without price breakdown
These new promotional codes are also available on the box office:
You simply have to enter a promotional code (through the menu Actions > Enter promotional code). The shipment fees are then set to null and highlighted in blue. By hovering the mouse over the null amount, you can display the initial amount of the shipment fees.
Getting started
You have to create a promotional code of new type free shipment fee.
Once created, you assign a subset of sales channels to the promotional code and validate itHowever, in order to guarantee an homogeneous layout of the generated document, it's recommended to assign producers/providers systematically when this feature is used.
