texte = Hi I have a very old shopping site that was loosely based on a sitebuilder = template and my customer has requested an ability to give users a 15% = early order facility. Basically the site is for catering requirements = for exhibitions, so if a customer orders a certain amount of time before = the exhibition they get a discount. I had started adding code to the totals bit but I'm wondering if it = would be easier to have a line item that was a discount item instead. = That would save me having to re-write a load of reports stuff at the = backend. So thinking aloud I would get to the checkout, fill in the address = stuff, proceed to the invoice and in doing so automatically add a line = item with a negative amount. My question is, if I was doing this how can = I override the price of a lineitem as I add it to the cart as the = discount would obviously vary depending on the size of their order? Or does anyone have any better ideas, I need a simple solution as they = are not wanting a bill for my time. Thanks for any help.
