7/3/2006 3:04:02 AM    Custom Discount Logic - Can I do it with MSCS
I'm working on a system whereby the catalog is imported on a twice daily  
  
cycle from a third party database.  I then import the data as flat files into  
  
a database of my own and then render out the XML for ready importing into  
  
Commerce Server.  
  
Within' the business there are discounts called Multibuys, Promotions and  
  
Kits.  
  
To use Multibuys are a starter.  If product 'AD345X' is added to the basket  
  
three or more times, the price is no longer say 12.99 its is infact 10.99 per  
  
item.  
  
I have this information stored in the product table. Whereby a field denotes  
  
that product 'AD345X' has a multibuy discount with 'M' in the field and there  
  
is a trigger value also stored of value '3'.  
  
Firstly I cannot see any way of writting my own customised discount logic.  
  
Is this possible @ all.  I don't see how I can use the campaign manager  
  
since I have 4000+ products that import but no way of importing a campaign.  
  
Any ideas on how I do custom discounts when adding items to the basket?  
  
Please help.
