If you use volume discounts on bol in combination with the Repricer, you need to set up discounts in the Repricer as it overrides "regular" volume discounts.

Create discount price fields

You need to create a project field for every volume discount you want to add to your channel.

  1. Go to Setup >Project fields.

  2. Click + Add project field.

  3. For Name, give your field a descriptive name (like price_volume_2).

  4. Click Create.

Repeat this for each discount you want to add to your channel.

Example: To have both a 10% discount for 5 or more copies, and a 20% for 10 or more copies, create a project field for both (e.g. price_volume_2 , price_volume_3 )

Fill in discount prices with rules

  1. Go to Channels > [your bol channel] > Rules.

  2. Click Create rule.

  3. Give your rule a descriptive name (like 'Volume discount prices').

  4. Click Save.

  5. Create a calculate rule to apply discounts.

  6. Click Save rule.

Note: Apply the round number rule to each price_volume field to prevent discount prices with excessive decimals, which can lead to Bol reporting invalid price errors.

Map your volume discount fields

  1. Go to the Build step in your bol channel and scroll to the Volume discount section.

  2. At Volume discount, click + Add. The Quantity and Price per item columns will appear.

    1. For Quantity, click Supported values and select the item quantity to qualify for the discount.

    2. For Price per item, select the project fields you created in the first step (e.g. price_volume_2)

  3. Click Save.

Note: You can also choose a project field for Quantity to set different quantities for certain items to be eligible for the discount.

To do this, you'll need to create new empty project fields containing the quantities, fill them with values with a rule, and then map them here.
