I’m using “Global discount” to apply a discount to an entire product category. Everything is working right, but for some products, Instagram shop is showing 39% discount instead of 40% discount.
So I got a specific product with this problem and the price is as follows:
Original price: 59,99€ Sale price: 36,00€ Discount: -40%
I understand that this is a decimal precision thing. I’ve NOT enabled any correction factor option, so, in this case, ¿final price shouldn’t be 35,99€ instead of 36€?
Hi, thanks for your response, configuration in the client site has change (now is -50) , but I have a couple of screenshots to illustrate this. This is Instagram shop:
Here you can see extrange % discount. I don’t know if instagram is making its own calculations here, but those are products data:
1º Product: Original price: 59.99€ (49.58 in product page + 21.00 VAT) Discount price: 36€ % Discount configured: -40 % Discount shown in Insta: 39% I guess: 40 x 59.99 = 2399.6 / 100 = 23.996 So 59.99 – 23.996 = 35.994. final price = 36 (it seems rounded up) ¿Should be 35.99?
If I get 36 as product price, 36 * 100 / 59.99 = 60.01 So 100 – 60.01 = 39.99 ….. yes I guess is almost 40% …. but …
If i get 35.99 as product price, 35.99 * 100 / 59.99 = 59.993 So 100 – 59.993 = 40.007 … Nailed 40%
2º Product Original price: 50.99€ (42.14 in product page + 21.00 VAT) Discount price: 30.59€ % Discount configured: -40 % Discount shown in Insta: 40% I guess: 40 x 50.99 = 2039.6 / 100 = 20.396 So 50.99 – 20.996 = 30.594. final price = 30.59 (it seems OK)
So if i get 30.59 as product price, 30.59 * 100 / 50.99 = 59.992 So 100 – 59.992 = 40.008 Here is 40% nailed.
To both products applied same rule because both are in the same category (not in the excluded one).
It is strange…. And this is gettis very dense, but maybe there is some minor bug somewhere.
