I don't know where you are, geographically, but don't forget that you may not pay sales tax on gift certs themselves, so it might NOT be like any item in the store.
-----Original Message----- From: Will Tomlinson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, December 30, 2006 8:47 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Gift Certificate/Shopping cart question I need to add gift certificate functionality to my store app. What's the best way to do this? I'm guessing I need a tblGiftCertificates. It contains a certificatecode, amount, message, datepurch, receiveremail, etc. The user buys and actually pays for the certificate like it was any item in the store? Would I set it up as an item for sale like that? Then, what's the best process for the certificate receiver to redeem their cert.? Use their email and a generated certificate code as info they'd put in a form during the checkout process? Then keep a running total on how much they have left on the cert? Like, if they had $20.00 on it. Then purchased $50 worth of merchandise, I'd need to be able to calculate they owe $30 balance during checkout, etc... I can see little issues arising... Thanks for any suggestions you guys/gals have. Will ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.
