Bulk Course Access

Add the ability to sell bulk course enrollment. For example the option to buy 1, 5 or 10 course enrollments or "seats" at once.

Suggested simplified approach to achieve most of what was initially requested (to hopefully move this one up on the schedule of feature requests :)
At the point of sale, a single purchase results in a list of "X" number of unique "100% discount" coupon codes for any number of "seats". Each coupon is restricted to "one use" for the specific access purchased.
The administrator of the purchase organization uses a "mail merge" message distributing the coupon codes to the participants, each of whom goes to the store and purchases their own access to the online course (or other digital item).
By using the coupon, the participant sees the the price is $0 - no credit card required, but is required to complete a registration as usual for individual purchase of the item.
End result: Buyer of multiple "seats" controls the assignments to participants without further administration, assuming a "Lifetime Access" product.
For a "limited period" or subscription sale, each coupon sale must remain connected to the original purchase (good design practice in any case) so that termination of the group subscription terminates all participants.
Every participant would then have a customer login, where they can buy back in at their own expense, or use a new coupon to join a new group without re-entering their registration data.

Sell "seats" for courses

Sell "seats" for large organizations to control access to courses. Sell group price plus $##.00 per seat. AND make it a subscription, with ability to increase, decrease seats. EDIT: Each "seat" is assigned to an individual within the organization by the administrator who purchased the the course. Assignment means that the individual is given a unique log-in for the course. IMPORTANT: Once a seat has been assigned to an individual, any modification of the assignment creates a notification to the owner of the website. This is to allow monitoring of "churning" seat assignments to push more users through the course without buying additional seats.
