Configuring E-Commerce Discounts for a Session

Introduction

This section allows you to indicate an alternate price (discount) for a session. When a user registers for a session that has a discount, that user can enter the discount code to apply the alternate price. Administrators need to provide the discount code to their users.

Note: The discount does not reduce the amount of the session, but overrides it. For example, if a session costs $50.00 but has a discount of $10.00, any user entering the discount code would pay only $10.00 for that session.

A session can have only one alternate price associated with it.

Note: Any taxes or vouchers will be applied to the new session price if applied.
