Using multiple product group ID's
|
 WHEN OR WHEN NOT TO USE MULTIPLE PRODUCT GROUPS
Within the conversion script there is an option "productID". This is an ID that is generated by TradeTracker.
It is possible to specify a commission structure per product group.
It is not a description of your product or a category description or something, which is often assumed.
There is only one situation in which multiple product groups (ID's) should be used.
The only reason to use multiple product group ID's is when you offer 2 or more groups of products for which the difference in profit margin is so large that it is a risk to use 1 general commission model. For this purpose and only this, we would advise the usage of an additional product group ID, but even in this situation it is not 100% necessary. You could also base the affiliate commission you want to pay on the average profit margin of your entire shop. Just keep in mind that only a part of your sales will derive from your affiliate marketing endeavours. At the bottom line the actual commission percentages you spent on affiliates (when using your total profit margin to base this on) will always be on the low side in relation to your total average profit-margin percentage.
It is always possible to use product groups. But every situation is client specific.
There is no 1 general product group implementation solution.
The system you use does not matter, the way the system is configured is more important.
In essence using product groups requires just some basic web programming, in principle it is:
if product x is in category A use product group ID 1
else if product x is in category B use product group ID 2
The amount of time a client will need to set up the usage of product groups for their campaign will depend on the individual situation. We can't say that upfront, because we just can't know, because it is always a custom solution. If someone would need 20 different product groups and they/we would have to create very large regular expressions in order to identify each product to be able to set the correct group for it, it will be somewhat time consuming to set up.On the other hand, if the site already uses correct defined categories that are corresponding with the groups they want to use for example, it would be easier to set up. What you need to take in to consideration is how you are able to identify for each product in which product group the product must be. The usage of categories within a site is for example 1 way to do this. In case you do still need to use multiple product groups, there are some things to take into account.
How will you identify the correct product group for each product within an order?
For each product you must be able to identify the correct product group based on a specific identifier, this can be the SKU or category for example.
An order can consist of products from multiple product groups. This implies that the product group will have to be identified on product level, per individual item.
This can be done by a so called basket loop that runs through each product within the order and checks the order category for example.
In the example below a check is done on orderCategory that is a property of order. In case the orderCategory is "hardware" that product gets productID: 321.
$amountsPerProductGroup = array();
foreach ($orders as $order) {
switch($order['orderCategory']) {
case 'hardware':
$productID = '321';
break;
case 'software':
$productID = '322';
break;
default:
$productID = '323'; // "general" product ID.
break;
}
$amountsPerProductGroup[$productID] += $order['orderAmount'];
}
foreach ($amountsPerProductGroup as $productID => $transactionAmount) {

Copy this code above the div class="contentText" in the checkout_success.php file.
<?php
$campaignID = '[marker]CAMPAIGN_ID[/marker]';
$productID = '[marker]PRODUCT_ID[/marker]';
