Catalogue Price Rule - Not discounting configurable products correctly

Hi,

We have a site selling shirts and use configurable products for this.

We have one configurable product and then multiple simple products for each size option.

Above a certain size we increase the price of this shirts.

As an example, our configurable product has a base price of £10 and our price breaks are as follows:

1 - Small - £0 (Total £10)
2 - Medium - £0 (Total £10)
3 - Large - £5 (Total £15)

All of the above works correctly until we apply a catalogue price rule.

When we apply a catalogue price rule only the configurable product price gets discounted and the pricing increment doesn’t

To give another example, with 10% discount the price become as follows:

1 - Small - £10 minus 10% = £9
2 - Medium - £10 minus 10% = £9
3 - Large - £10 minus 10% = £9....... plus £5 giving a total of £14.

Example 3 should actually be - (£10 + £5) minus 10% = £13.50

Is this a known but and does anyone know of a workaround?

Thanks,
Andy

Hi,

I’ve got the exact same problem.
There’s an extension which might fix that, though I didn’t try it yet:

The extension doesn\’t provide a solution to your issue. The problem lies within the way that Magento applies the discounts (it should be applying it to both the base price & the additional cost of the configurable element, but it only discounts the base price).

The only solution I\’ve found, thus far, is within this post:
http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/46664/#t160908 (within the thread \"Configurable products with catalogue price rules not working\")

Note that you should read through the thread, because there are some follow-up posts that further resolve the issue.

Namely: http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/46664/#t160910
