General

This is the first tab of the coupon add or edit form.

  • ID – this is the read-only unique system ID of the coupon.
  • Status - this is the status of the coupon – enabled, used or disabled. Only enabled coupons can be applied to the purchases. A coupon becomes “used” when it is used the specified number of times.
  • Name – internal name of the coupon, used to identify the coupon type to the administrator. The coupon names don’t have to be unique – when you clone a coupon, all of the copies retain the name of the original.
  • Coupon Code – this is the code that has to be entered at the checkout in order to receive the discount. It is not case-sensitive, and it appears on the order confirmation and invoice printout screens. You can enter the code manually, or let the system automatically generate a random code by pressing the “Generate Code” button to the right of this field. Currently, there is no way to specify the format of the generated codes.
  • Expiration – the date when the coupon expires. It is optional, and if left blank the coupon will be always valid. The coupon becomes valid as soon as it is created (provided, of course, that its status is “enabled”).
  • Type – this is the coupon discount type, which can be Flat, Percentage or Shipping. A flat discount means a fixed amount subtracted from the order total. A percentage discount means a specified percentage, based on the price or the order total, subtracted from the order. A shipping discount is a fixed amount subtracted from the shipping cost of the order. If the coupon applies only to certain products, their shipping cost will be reduced when calculating the total shipping cost.
  • Amount – the amount of the coupon discount, see “type” above.
  • Last Used By – read-only field, indicating the user name of the customer who used the coupon. If the coupon allows multiple uses, it is the name of the last customer to use it.
  • Last Used On - read-only field, indicating the date and time of when the coupon was used. If the coupon allows multiple uses, it will display the last time it was used.
  • Number Of Uses – specifies the number of times this coupon can be used. It has to be at least one, and if left blank the coupon can be used unlimited number of times.
