Discounts should be easier to program

[thenakedsheep]

Please stop updating items we don't need updated and get something we can really use! (Example - how to add variations keep changing)

Here is what would be Very useful to Retailers:

When setting up a discount for a big sale.

We should be able to click on ALL ITEMS, then see all of the items in a list where we can check off the items we do not want included in the sale.

When you have a Storewide sale, but need to exclude a few items -  you have to enter every single item separately.  This is time consuming and prone to mistakes.

When you have hundreds of different items, it makes this a very tedious task.

How easy would it be to click All Items, see the list of items, and click the check mark OFF for items not included in the sale?

 I would have to agree with everything you say. I think 'select all' and 'deselect all' functions would be really useful.

I particularly find the it frustrating when we have a discount vouchers when you have a 'storewide' offer but (i know not really storewide) you have a couple of items you can not include, for example we have over 250 products, but we need to exclude a couple of products which are subscriptions which we can not discount. Ideally you would have a voucher that applies storewide and then add the items you do not want be included in this offer. As it is you need to manually add all the items you want to include leaving out a couple you do not want to include (big job with a large catalogue). As mentioned in the thread is the absence of a 'select all' button then the ability to deselect the ones you don't want.
