1. Overview

The Discounts and Promotions package provides the ability to define promotional discounts. Orders are evaluated against a set of defined discount rules that can be applied either automatically or manually. The following list of discounts is just a sample of the discounts you can define using the Discounts and Promotions package:

  • Buy one get one free

  • Percent off qualified purchases

  • Dollars off qualified purchases

  • Coupon codes

But again, these are just a sample of the kinds of discounts that can be defined. The power and flexibility of the package' rules engine provides the ability to design discounts unique to your business needs.

This document describes how to define discounts that can be specific to items, sale types, and customers. The availability of discounts can also be limited to a time period using a date range.
