Discounts

A Discount is a code that can be applied during order placement to reduce the price. Open Discounts from the menu to see the discounts in your shop.

The list

Column	Description
Code	The coupon code, pressing it opens the discount's edit screen
Name	The discount's name
Type	Its type — Percentage or Fixed Amount
Value	Its amount
Status	Its active status — Active, Scheduled, Expired, or Inactive
Used	How many times it has been used, out of its usage limit
Starts	When it becomes available
Ends	When it expires. No end date for discounts without an expiry date
Action	Covered below

One more column, Created, is hidden by default. You can unhide it from the columns button.

What each status means

Active is working right now. Scheduled has not started yet. Expired has passed its end date. Inactive is switched off. Biponix works these out for you — you only set the dates and the Active switch.

Search and filters

This list works the same way as every other list in your dashboard. Working with lists explains searching, filtering, sorting, columns and views in full.

Search lets you find a discount by its code or its name.

Here are the available filters for this screen:

• Status — filter the list by whether it is Active, Scheduled, Expired, or Inactive.
• Type — filter the list by Percentage off order or Fixed amount off order.
• Created — a date range for when the discount was created.

Actions

Each row has an action button. These are the actions available there:

• Edit — open the discount to make changes.
• Copy code — copy the discount code to your clipboard.
• Activate or Deactivate — turn the discount on or off.
• Delete — remove it completely. Only works if it has never been used; use Deactivate instead to stop new redemptions on one already used.

Bulk actions

Tick rows the way Working with lists describes, then press Bulk actions for:

• Activate — turn on every selected discount.
• Deactivate — turn off every selected discount.
• Delete — remove every selected discount, skipping any that has already been used and telling you which ones were skipped.

Press Create Discount, then fill in:
