Local fix

Problem summary

  • USERS AFFECTED:
    WC 7 users that want to set a promotion code to one time use
    only.
    
    PROBLEM ABSTRACT:
    User is able to use a "one time use" promotion code multiple
    times as anonymous user.
    
    BUSINESS IMPACT:
    Unique promotion codes being used more times than intended.
    
    RECOMMENDATION:
    

Problem conclusion

  • Fixed the way unique promotion codes were redeemed or restored
    when placing an order so that the order_id column in PX_CDUSAGE
    has the correct order id by setting the order id when updating
    the table.
    
    Added a check when removing a unique promotion code from an
    order to prevent a redeemed promotion code from changing status
    which would make the code available again.
    
    Added a new validation task command that is run when submitting
    the order to verify that all unique promotion codes on the order
    are available before placing the order.
