Lines

  1. Select the type that is going to be used for the offer. It can be an item, product group, item category, special group, or all items.

  2. Select the appropriate value based on the type (that is select the item number if item was selected; product group if product group was selected, and so on).

  3. Enter/select variant code (if applicable for the item).

  4. Select the Exclude check box if the item/group is to be excluded. This is useful when a type that is not "Item" is used, however the promotion does not apply to a few items within that group.

  5. Select Unit of Measure if the offer is to apply to a specific Unit of Measure.

  6. In the cell No. of Items Needed, enter the number of items from the item/group that are required to fulfill the offer.

  7. The field Deal Price/Disc.% will only be visible if the Discount Type is set to Line Spec. Each line can have its own discount in these scenarios. Enter the amount or percentage for the discount. The Disc. Type field defines whether the value entered here is a percent or amount.

Line groups are used to allow you to define the different mix and match elements to your offer. For example, if you have an offer where you buy a qualifying pair of pants that the customer gets a belt for free, you can define the different pairs of pants that are included in the offer and assign them all line group A, and all belts that are part of the offer would be assigned line group B. When using the Least Expensive discount type with 100% discount, when a pair of pants in the offer are purchased and then a belt in the list is added, the least expensive of the 2 items would be free.

Select the appropriate line group. Note: Line groups are per offer, so creating a new offer requires creating new lines.

See Line Group for more information on how to create line groups for the offer.
