Scenario

You want to set a discount if a user buys more than 2 different products in a category. You would like to sell more products of specific categories by offering discounts to users.

Accomplishing this is possible in SAP Commerce Hybris by an OOTB (Out of the box) way.

If you want to apply a promotion if a user adds 2 amounts of the same products to his cart, see this post.
