To implement the user story of rewarding loyal customers with bulk discounts based on previously purchased quantities, the design of the solution should include the following components:

Contracts, Subscriptions and Assets should be populated with historical data. This is necessary to track the customer’s purchase history and determine the appropriate discount tier for each product or service. Contracts, Subscriptions and Assets are the core objects of Revenue Cloud that store the information about the customer’s agreements, recurring charges, and entitlements. By migrating the historical data from the legacy system to these objects, the customer can leverage the Revenue Cloud features such as renewal management, usage-based pricing, and revenue recognition. 123

Discount schedules with Cross Orders checked. This is the feature that enables the bulk discounts based on previously purchased quantities. A discount schedule is a set of discount tiers that apply to a product or a product option based on the quantity or amount ordered. By checking the Cross Orders option, the discount schedule will consider the quantities from all the orders associated with the same account, contract, or subscription. This way, the customer can reward their loyal customers with lower prices for higher volumes. 45
