New module: Rules over orders
With the Rules over orders module, it is possible to create a set of rules applied to the entire order process of an online store.
This mechanism allows you to create rules through an intuitive interface, that allows to affect the behaviour of an order. The rules are a structure that enable a set of exceptions specific to each client's business model. A rule may be divided in three parts:
The condition (if the weight of the order is higher than X, if the total of products ordered are less than Y, etc.)
To which component it applies to (payment/delivery methods, total cost of the order, etc.)
The action to be performed (increase, decrease, exemption, if it will be a percentage or a value, etc.)
Examples of rules:
Orders above a certain cost have a x% discount on delivery methods;
Orders above a certain cost are free of additional costs;
Orders with over a certain quantity of products (not specifying which) have a price increase (percentage or fixed cost).
