Multiple association of products in single price rule- Defect or feature limitation?

Hi,
Request inputs and comments from community on the subject topic.

I created a price rule in tha catalog manager module with following
condition & action:

Condition:
Input selected: Product (I added multiple input condition as product- The
objective is to apply a single price rule to multiple products)
Operator selected- Is ( for each input selected as product)
Value selected- product name on which price rule needs to be applied for
each input selected

Action:
Action type selected- percentage of default price
value selected- 25

Result- The price rule does not apply in case i select multiple product as
input, however the same price rule applies on the product if single
product is selected. The same happens in case i have selected input as
product category and added multiple product categories in a single price
rule.

Is it a system limitation that price rule can be applied only on a single
product/ category at a time or a defect in the application.

Regards
Sanjay Kumar Gupta

In reply to this post by Sanjay6 G

can we achieve this by adding an operator 'Are', so that the system
identifies the clusters of products on which the price rule has to be
applied.

Why don't you group your products by categories and apply the prices on them?

Re: Multiple association of products in single price rule- Defect or feature limitation?

Hi Jacques,
Thanks for your reply.
I agree with you that by creating a new category and associating all
products on which price rules has to be applied can help me achieve the
objective. But i feel this way we are adding one more step in the business
process and making the journey of merchandiser long. Merchandiser would
first be required to create a category and associates all products with
the category first and then proceed with creating the price rule and use
this category as the input category in price rule.
Also you mentioned ' group your products by categories', as multiple
products can't be associated in a price rule similarly multiple categories
also can't be associated in the price rule. Hence still if a merchandiser
has to apply a price rule on products which are belonging/associated to
multiple categories, he first need to create a new category and associate
all product with the new category and use this category to create the
price rule.
I think the price rule applies 'AND' operation if multiple inputs are
added in a price rule. Should the engine not apply 'OR' condition if the
input parameter like product, category, catalog, party are same and should
apply 'AND' condition if there is a difference between the input condition
in a price rule like category & party.

Actually you don't "think it". It's clearly stated in the Edit Price Rule screen, where a sentence says:
<<If multiple conditions are entered they are tested logically as and AND statement. Therefore all Conditions must be TRUE for the price rule to execute (same for actions)>>

This would need a new development. Feel free to create a Jira and contribute a patch
