00:00:05:15 - 00:00:08:15
In this tutorial
we'll discuss the usage rules feature.

00:00:08:18 - 00:00:12:00
This little use feature allows you
to define scenarios in which access

00:00:12:00 - 00:00:16:00
to a particular payment methods
or delivery methods may be restricted.

00:00:16:20 - 00:00:19:06
For example,
if you would like to only grant guest

00:00:19:06 - 00:00:22:26
uses the ability to utilize payment
methods such as PayPal.

00:00:23:08 - 00:00:26:08
Restrict access to the payment methods.

00:00:27:26 - 00:00:29:12
To demonstrate this, we're going to go

00:00:29:12 - 00:00:32:12
to our delivery computation area.

00:00:33:18 - 00:00:36:18
So whilst we're going to demonstrate
this on delivery computation,

00:00:36:23 - 00:00:40:02
it can be utilized
in different areas of Infigo.

00:00:40:18 - 00:00:44:12
So for example, for payment methods,
delivery methods like we have here.

00:00:44:20 - 00:00:47:20
And for delivery options.

00:00:54:02 - 00:00:55:02
So I'm going to click on

00:00:55:02 - 00:00:58:04
usage rules
next to my chosen delivery method.

00:00:58:05 - 00:01:01:27
So in my case, it's going to be fixed
rate shipping and go to usage rules.

00:01:06:07 - 00:01:07:21
Towards the bottom of this page,

00:01:07:21 - 00:01:11:15
you'll see a section allowing you
to define usage rule requirements.

00:01:11:29 - 00:01:16:08
In addition, there's an info box
providing some additional context

00:01:16:08 - 00:01:19:08
on these capabilities.

00:01:20:25 - 00:01:24:02
If I click down on this box, you can see
the options that we have available.

00:01:24:06 - 00:01:28:02
The dropdown allows you to choose
requirements types for your rule,

00:01:28:02 - 00:01:32:13
and this can be done against customer
rolls, categories, product variants,

00:01:32:22 - 00:01:38:09
product groups, departments
and select Connect plugins as well.

00:01:39:10 - 00:01:43:01
Use these options to create rules
where the scenario has to match

00:01:43:06 - 00:01:46:11
before a particular payment
or delivery method will be shown.

00:01:47:05 - 00:01:51:01
For example, will next create a rule
where in order to utilize this delivery

00:01:51:01 - 00:01:54:27
method, the user placing
the order must have a guest

00:01:54:27 - 00:01:57:27
customer role.

00:02:01:21 - 00:02:04:27
So I'm going to go to usage requirements
by customer roles.

00:02:05:13 - 00:02:09:01
Selecting one of those will reveal
a couple of additional options,

00:02:09:01 - 00:02:11:14
allowing you to configure
that particular rule.

00:02:15:11 - 00:02:17:03
We have restricts usage.

00:02:17:03 - 00:02:19:16
Consider this a general on off switch.

00:02:19:16 - 00:02:22:17
If this is checked,
usage is restricted to those matching

00:02:22:17 - 00:02:25:17
the specified rules.

00:02:28:10 - 00:02:31:10
Then underneath here
we have the customer roles.

00:02:31:17 - 00:02:36:02
So in our example, we're looking to type
the name of a defined customer role.

00:02:36:23 - 00:02:40:04
Required input will differ based
on the rule that you're trying to make.

00:02:40:14 - 00:02:43:17
For example, creating a rule
against a category will require

00:02:43:17 - 00:02:46:17
input of the category ID.

00:02:46:20 - 00:02:50:27
You can check the tooltip
next to the field when creating your rule

00:02:50:27 - 00:02:53:27
to see the format of
input that they expect.

00:02:55:18 - 00:02:58:13
So in our case,
I'm just going to type guests

00:02:58:13 - 00:03:01:07
as we want that customer role
to be covered

00:03:01:07 - 00:03:04:07
by this particular rule.

00:03:04:21 - 00:03:07:21
Then if we click on Add New,

00:03:07:25 - 00:03:10:06
this will confirm the addition
of the rule.

00:03:10:06 - 00:03:13:04
Multiple rules can be defined
for a single payment method,

00:03:13:04 - 00:03:16:13
delivery method
or delivery option if they are required

00:03:17:13 - 00:03:17:28
Infigo

00:03:17:28 - 00:03:21:26
provides the ability to choose
whether all of these rules need to be met

00:03:21:26 - 00:03:24:26
in order for the method to be used
or just one of them.

00:03:25:00 - 00:03:28:00
And these are found within your order
settings.

00:03:33:13 - 00:03:36:01
If we scroll right down to usage

00:03:36:01 - 00:03:39:01
requirements right down at the bottom.

00:03:40:27 - 00:03:43:06
So this is split into three areas

00:03:43:06 - 00:03:46:24
covering delivery options,
delivery methods, and payment methods.

00:03:47:03 - 00:03:50:01
These are global controls
which govern all rules

00:03:50:01 - 00:03:53:01
specified in each of these three areas.

00:03:53:22 - 00:03:56:22
If these settings are not checked
so that false,

00:03:56:23 - 00:04:00:18
then all rules are required
to match a scenario before it can be used.

00:04:01:06 - 00:04:04:13
If these settings are checked
so true, then

00:04:04:13 - 00:04:07:13
only one usage rule needs to match.

00:04:08:15 - 00:04:12:23
Once you've chosen the configuration
you require, make sure you save the page.
