The Order Discount API enables you to create a new type of discount that is applied to all merchandise in the cart.

## Example use cases

- Money off the order subtotal. For example, $5 off the order subtotal.
- Money off products on an order. For example, 20% off all products on the order.
- Tiered discount by spend. For example, spend $100 get 10% off all products.

## Migrating from scripts to functions

If you want to migrate an existing [line item script](https://help.shopify.com/manual/checkout-settings/script-editor/shopify-scripts) to Shopify Functions, then you can use the following mappings:

| Shopify Scripts method | Description | Shopify Functions object                                                                                                                                                                | Additional context |
| ------------ | ----------- |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| -------------- |
| `change_line_price` | Applies a discount to a cart line for a product by specifying a new reduced price, and a message | [Product discount](/docs/api/functions/reference/product-discounts/graphql/functionrunresult) | Apply one or more [Discounts](/docs/api/functions/reference/product-discounts/graphql/common-objects/discount) by specifying the [Value](/docs/api/functions/reference/product-discounts/graphql/common-objects/value) (`percentage` or `fixedAmount` off), [Target(s)](/docs/api/functions/reference/product-discounts/graphql/common-objects/target) (either a `cartLine`, or `productVariant`), and an optional message.
| `split` | Splits a product into multiple lines so that you can apply discounts to partial quantities | [Product discount](/docs/api/functions/reference/product-discounts/graphql/functionrunresult)                                                                                              | Use the optional `quantity` field in [Target](/docs/api/functions/reference/product-discounts/graphql/common-objects/target) (either a `cartLine`, or `productVariant`) to optionally limit the number of units the discount may be applied to. |
| `change_properties` | Adds or changes a line item property | Not available                                                                                                                                                                           | Refer to [applyAttributeChange](/docs/api/checkout-ui-extensions/latest/apis) in the checkout UI extensions API to apply attribute changes. |
| `reject` | Disallows a discounts code from being applied at checkout | Not available                                                                                                                                                                           | Use a [Product discount](/docs/api/functions/reference/product-discounts/graphql/functionrunresult) or [Order discount](/docs/api/functions/reference/order-discounts/graphql/functionrunresult) function that contains the necessary logic. For example, you can use conditions to exclude a discount from applying. |


## Limitations and considerations

- Input `cart.deliveryGroups` is always an empty array for this function.
- Active automatic app discounts using Shopify Functions are applicable for all [Shopify sales channels](https://help.shopify.com/manual/online-sales-channels) that use Shopify Checkout, including the [Online Store](https://help.shopify.com/manual/online-store) and [Shopify Point Of Sale (POS)](https://help.shopify.com/manual/sell-in-person).
