A package discount is a reduction in the retail price that is applied to the package base price at check out.

This discount is used to tell the software to apply a discount to the retail price of the package itself, and not any package groups or package options.

Once a package discount is applied, global discount rules will be disabled for the base package.


The 10% package discount is listed seperately from the any discounts applied to package options. In the example above, the base price of the package is $30.00, and therefore the package discount is $3.00
