BOGO Special Offer

BOGO is an optional module that allows you to offer a discount on one course when users enroll in multiple courses via ACEweb.

IMPORTANT NOTES

  • Discounts are applied to the number of courses added to the user's Cart. So any courses they enroll someone else in via the Proxy Registration option will count toward the total number needed to receive the discount.
  • Discounted prices are only applied to the main course fee.
  • Any mandatory fees will still be assessed to the discounted course.

The BOGO Special Offer module requires additional files for ACEweb. Please contact your ACEware technician for installation files/instructions.

If you are offering a discount on 1 course only:

  1. Create a grouping code for the special offer group of courses. Note: if you don't want this group to be shown in the list with your other ACEweb groups, check the Do not display courses on ACEweb box. If you choose this option, you will need to complete step 6.
  2. Assign the grouping code to all courses that qualify for the special offer.
  3. Create a Main fee description (i.e. Module > Codes > FEES: Course Main Fee Descriptions) to be used with the special offer group of courses.
  4. Add a Main fee to each course that qualifies for the special offer, using the fee description you created in step 3, with the amount set to 0.00 and Hide from web? set to YES. E.g.

  5. Enter the appropriate options into the BonusDeal INI seting in the ACEweb.ini. Use the LOW or ANY rule with this option.
  6. If you won't display the special offer group in your regular course listings (see step 1 note), you will need to add a link to the group to a page on your website.

Use the following href for your link where GRCODE is the group code you created in step 2 above, and Group+Title is the description of the group you created in step 2:

showschedule.awp?&Mode=GROUP&Group=GRCODE&Title=Group+Title

E.g. (sample link code):

<a href="showschedule.awp?&amp;Mode=GROUP&Group=BOGO&Title=Special+Offer">Special Offer</a>

**IMPORTANT**

  • The grouping code must be entered in UPPERCASE.
  • Use the + sign between words in your title setting--don't enter spaces between words.
  • Your ACEweb setup may require the addition of the wconnect path to your href, e.g.

<a href="/wconnect/showschedule.awp...

If you are offering the discount on all courses added after the required number are purchased:

  1. Create a grouping code for the special offer group of courses. Note: if you don't want this group to be shown in the list with your other ACEweb groups, check the Do not display courses on ACEweb box. If you choose this option, you will need to complete step 6.
  2. Assign the grouping code to all courses that qualify for the special offer.
  3. Create an Other fee description (i.e. Module > Codes > FEES: Course Additional/Optional Fee Descriptions) to be used with the special offer group of courses.
  4. Add an Other fee to each course that qualifies for the special offer, using the fee description you created in step 3, with the amount set to 0.00 and Hide from web? set to YES. E.g.

  5. Enter the appropriate options into the BonusDeal INI seting in the ACEweb.ini. Use the AFTER rule with this option.
  6. If you won't display the special offer group in your regular course listings (see step 1 note), you will need to add a link to the group to a page on your website.

Use the following href for your link where GRCODE is the group code you created in step 2 above, and Group+Title is the description of the group you created in step 2:

showschedule.awp?&amp;Mode=GROUP&Group=GRCODE&Title=Group+Title

E.g. (sample link code):

<a href="showschedule.awp?&amp;Mode=GROUP&Group=BOGO&Title=Special+Offer">Special Offer</a>

**IMPORTANT**

  • The grouping code must be entered in UPPERCASE.
  • Use the + sign between words in your title setting--don't enter spaces between words.
  • Your ACEweb setup may require the addition of the wconnect path to your href, e.g.

<a href="/wconnect/showschedule.awp...

When the user adds the first course from the Special Offer group to their cart, the system will give specifics about the special offer:

If the user leaves the Show only Special Offer Courses box checked, when they click the Add Another Course button, the only courses listed will be the ones that qualify for the special offer.

They will be notified when they've added enough courses to receive the discount:

If they continue to checkout, the discounted price is reflected in their course listing:

Note: they are only given the option to delete the bonus package. If they click the Delete button, all courses are removed from their cart.

If discounting 1 course only, the discount is applied as the Main fee of the course. E.g.

 

If discounting all courses after required number is purchased, the discount is added as an Additional Charge. E.g.
