hello david (sitting 10 ft away from me),This is the way to get around the issue as i understand it. by looking at the demo promotion "Test $ off products in category" i was able to figure out how to give the appropriate discounts to the items in our categories. The only difference is we needed to add a few conditions so the discounts only applied if the cart sub total was at a certain amount and the party was in a particular classification. After i added the conditions we needed i told it to include basically all the categories we have parts in but excludethe parts in our LIMITED_DISC category.The tricky part for me was that the place to include and exclude categoriesis not obvious. It gives you the option to do that when creating theconditions and actions but you really need to do it further down on the page. i am not sure why you can specify this info in the conditions and actions portion of the rules. It's directly under the portion of the pagefor creating a new rule. Also you had to define categories to include.excluding a category does not automatically mean include every category but the one i chose to exclude. we have it working for now. I suppose we bettertest it huh.
If you associate products or categories with a condition or action they will apply only to that condition or action, whereas the ones on the bottom of the page apply to all conditions and actions.
