Have had issues with promo codes also discounting cPanel or additional IP's instead of just the product we wish to discount. There seems to be no issue if it was a separate product, but configurable options always seem to get discounted too.
Merged Ideas
    Apply discounts only to products (not add ons)
    Would be great have an option who determine if the discount must be applied to the whole order or only to the product, i.e. Dedicated server = $199.95cPanel addon = $30invoice total = $229.95invoice total with a 10% discount promo = $206.95if the discount would be applied only to the product, the invoice total:Dedicated Server = $199.95Dedicated Server with a 10% discount = $179.95cPanel addon = $30invoice total = $209.95

Apparently WHMCS doesn't care to add "real" options like this one or the one called "Dependent Configurable Options".

They find it way more important to add more "translation" functions and adding their WHMCS-logo to emails, instead of real functionality. Really disappointing that WHMCS cares more about that, rather than these kind of features. Oh well.

Not to mention the fact that they hardly try to fix bugs in general. I reported a bug (CORE-9555) on the 7th of January 2016. Now it's the 27th of July. Every time I asked about this bug, they responded that it will be fixed in the next release (every time).

Obviously I have given up on the fact that this will ever be fixed. Also I won't be reporting any bugs at all anymore, apparently WHMCS really does not care about bugs in their software. I found a few more, even one which is a security issue, but I cannot motivate myself anymore to report this.

Just my 2 cents...

This should be given priority. Especially when selling dedicated servers with lots of configurable options, it makes perfectly sense to create promotions that applies to the base price only (a percentage) while extra options should be charged at normal price.

Please include this in the future, thank you!

This is required feature and it should be included.

This would indeed be very handy. Please include this feature in a future release.

It's interesting the promotions have the ability to add to configurable options.. yet there is no way to exclude a products configurable option. This is a massive oversight and I hope this gets resolved.

Promotion code need much more works in WHMCS, there are lot's of options needed to be add to promotion code, like this option, another options I think that would be great to add is different discount percent on different product or group with a single coupon code.

We would like to see this feature as well!
