We have improved our backend system for quotation and order pricing. Going forward, all new quotes granting a fixed monetary discount will automatically generate a unique discount code. Therefore, the discount will no longer apply to each product line separately, but rather be deducted from the cart's total using a coupon code.
Percentage discounts will remain as before at the product line level – this change does not affect them.
Why is this change being made?
Accurate amounts without rounding errors
Line-by-line allocation sometimes caused inaccuracies from cents. The coupon code eliminates this issue entirely.
Compatibility with ERP systems
ERP and POS systems support coupons by default, ensuring the same discount is applied accurately throughout the entire order process.
Simplified maintenance and enhanced security
Campaign and reporting functions will be built on a single, well-tested coupon logic, reducing errors and speeding up development.
Customer-specific control
The coupon is valid only on the respective customer's account. If the order's content is changed in a prohibited way, the coupon is automatically invalidated – similar to how a quote would have been voided under the old model.
Note. This change applies only to new quotes starting from 26.4.2025. Previous quotes remain unchanged.
Frequently Asked Questions
Question | Answer |
|---|---|
When does the coupon expire? | Until you place the order – or until it is invalidated due to an order modification. |
Can I combine other promotional codes? | No. The quotation-specific coupon is customer-specific and cannot be combined with other discounts. |
Does this affect old fixed discount offers? | No. The change only applies to new offers. If you want to change an old order's discount to a coupon form, reset the line discounts and create a new mass discount using the updated logic. |
