How is your promotion setup? Which version/revision of OFBiz are you using? In general no item-quantity should be allowed to be a qualifier and a beneficiary at the same time, they are meant to be mutually exclusive. If it is really doing what you describe then it is probably a bug. The best example of how to set this up is in the demo data with the buy x get y for z% off. -David On Nov 16, 2007, at 2:07 PM, Lindsey L. wrote: > > Hello, > > I have a promotion scenario that I have not been able to create and > I was > hoping I could get some direction. > > My scenario is not necessarily quantity-based, but instead is based > on the > actual products chosen.

Wow! OFBiz 2.0... I don't even know what to say about that, except that it sounds like a bug that was probably fixed around 3 years ago or so. I'm not sure the best way to resolve this, but updating to at least the 4.0 branch would the best way to go. Short of that you could hire someone to fix it in your code base. -David On Nov 19, 2007, at 8:13 AM, Lindsey L. wrote: > Hi David, > > I believe the version we are running is 2.0. > > The way I have the promotion set up is similar to the "Buy X get Y > for Z% > off" model.
