Basic Terms In Magento 2

In Magento, there are several terms related to the total value of a shopping cart (also known as a quote), including the following:

  1. Subtotal: This is the total cost of all items in the shopping cart before any discounts, taxes, or shipping charges are applied.

  2. Base Subtotal: This is the subtotal calculated in the system's base currency, regardless of the currency in which the user is viewing the website.

  3. Subtotal Including Tax: This is the total cost of all items in the cart, including any taxes according to the store's tax settings.

  4. Subtotal Excluding Tax: This is the total cost of all items in the cart, excluding any taxes.

  5. Subtotal With Discount: This is the total cost of all products in the cart after applying discounts but before taxes and shipping charges are added.

  6. Base Subtotal With Discount: Similar to "Base Subtotal," this is the "Subtotal With Discount" calculated in the system's base currency.

  7. Grand Total: This is the final total value that the customer needs to pay. It includes the subtotal (after discounts), shipping charges, and taxes.

  8. Base Grand Total: Similar to the Base Subtotal, this is the value of the grand total calculated in the base currency of the system.

  9. Shipping Amount: This is the cost of shipping for the order, which can vary based on the shipping rules set in Magento.

  10. Tax Amount: This is the total tax amount for the order. Magento can calculate different tax amounts for different products based on the tax rules you've set.

  11. Discount Amount: This is the total discount amount applied to the order. Magento can apply various discount rules to each order.

All these values are calculated and updated continuously as customers adjust their cart, affecting the final amount they will need to pay.
