Pricing and Promotions Work Properly with Fractional Quantities

Prices and promotions qualify and apply fractional quantities of an item added to the cart. For example, adding 0.5 kg of a product to a cart, or 0.75 lbs.

Why: Previously, prices and promotions weren’t applied correctly or at all when fractional quantities were added. The Approaching Discounts up-sell messaging also calculates and displays correctly when fractional quantities are added to the cart. Prices and promotions are set up in the context of quantity 1 and the quantity 1 price is used for calculating fractional quantities prices and discounts. You can use Product order attributes such as Minimum Order Quantity and Step Quantity to let your shoppers purchase items in fractional quantities. This new option is helpful for merchants with stores that allow customers to select quantities that aren't whole numbers.

Where: This change applies to the Salesforce B2C Commerce 21.1 release.
