Store the original price for an order item

A new optional field, originalAmount, is now available in order entries. The new field allows merchants to store the original price of an item. You can store the originalAmount separately from the unitPrice, which is the currently effective price of an item.

Add the original price to email templates

To display the originalAmount in emails to your customers, you can edit the order confirmation email templates. To do so, replace this section of code:

<span style="padding-bottom: 10px;">#e(${d.order.currency}) #format_amount(${entry.unitPrice})<br/>

With this code:

#if($!{entry.originalAmount} != $!{entry.unitPrice})
    <span style="padding-bottom: 10px; font-weight:bold; text-decoration: line-through">
         #e(${d.order.currency}) #format_amount(${entry.originalAmount})</span>
    <span style="padding-bottom: 10px; font-weight:bold; color:#ff1616">
         #e(${d.order.currency}) #format_amount(${entry.unitPrice})
    </span><br/>
#else
    <span style="padding-bottom: 10px;">
         #e(${d.order.currency}) #format_amount(${entry.unitPrice})
    </span><br/>
#end
