Adding Promoted Categories to Account Promotions

A key account manager can associate a category with an account promotion. This association allows the key account manager to add all the products in the category to the account promotion. In the Promoted Categories list, a key account manager can add a category to a promotion or remove a category from the promotion. The key account manager can also maintain information that is specific to the promotion in this view.

Key account managers can also simulate the results of promoting a category by using product lift factors. For more information on promoted category simulation, see Simulating Promotions for Promoted Products and Categories (End User).
