Promotions for Items on a Sales Custom Transaction
The Promotion and Coupon fields appear on the Items subtab only if SuitePromotions isn't enabled. For information about adding promotions using SuitePromotions, see SuitePromotions for Promotions on a Sales Custom Transaction.
This topic describes how to apply promotions to items in sales custom transactions, including how discounts are calculated and displayed. For an overview of using items on sales transactions, see Items Subtab of a Sales Custom Transaction.
To apply a promotion, in the Coupon Code field or the Promotion field, enter a valid code. The remaining Coupon Code or Promotion field fills in automatically. If applicable, the Discount Item and Rate fields fill in automatically, because they're set up during promotion creation as a flat rate or a percentage. For more information, see Discounts for Items on a Sales Custom Transaction.
Depending on the promotion setup, one of the following occurs:
-
The promotion discount is calculated automatically. The Discount Item line in the Summary on the upper right corner of the page shows the promotion discount amount.
-
The promotion isn't calculated automatically. Click Calculate. The Discount Item line in the Summary on the upper right corner of the page shows the promotion discount amount.
-
The promotion is added as a separate line item. The amount is deducted directly from the Subtotal line in the Summary on the upper right corner of the page.
