The docs have a section about the use of the [discount] tag which is quite
clear. What is doesn't explicitly tell you is that you will probably want
to create a field in userdb to store the discount amount for each customer
(I assume you want to do a one-rate discount for each registered customer
who qualifies). You can reference the value in this field (if one exists)
when doing discount calculations for the currently logged user:
[if data session logged_in]
[then]
[if data userdb::discount_amount::[data session username]]
[discount]**calcs here ***[/discount]
[/if]
[/then]
[/if]
The above code snip is just an untested example to suggest how you might
use a value stored in userdb field called "discount_amount" to calculate
the discount for a logged user.
