Promotion Query

[Rohit Jain-2]

Hello All,

we are using OFBiz 10.04
In catalog-> promo tabs
Query:- If we have 10 categories, and want to create a Promotion that can
be apply for all 9 categories but excluding 1.
for this, is it required to mention all those 9 categories in category
include section for promo Condition?
Or there is any other way to achieve it?
I have tried to use exclude category option but its not full fill our
requirement.
As if a order that include 1 product from that 1 excluded category with
other category products than promotion not applying

Please provide your thoughts, it will help us

Thanks & Regards

Rohit,

1 - Why not include relevant 9 categories only rather that going for 10 and excuding one?
2 - Include / exclude are for subcategories while you are configuring categories.
3 - If these are sub categories of main category, suggest to explicitly give relevant categories to be included and include its subsets.
4 - Always exclude will be if parent category is included and this category is to be excluded.


Hope the above helps...

Dev Panda

Hi Dev,

Thanks for replay.
10 categories are just for explaining my case it could be more then 20-50
or 100
and all these categories are at same level that could have some sub-level
categories.
so I just want to know can we set such condition by that we can exclude 1
or more categories.
As you mention include/exclude are for subcategories so I think we need to
add "Browse Root" category with promotion and then need to exclude some
categories from them.
I will try this but is it right to add Browse Root category with a
promotion?
