Creating Promotion Profiles


Administrators can create promotion profile templates that are used to create an account promotion profile. The account promotion profile inherits the attributes of the template, including:

An account can have more than one account promotion profile and one promotion profile template can be shared across accounts. Initially, no name is associated with a promotion profile template.

NOTE:  After creating a promotion profile template, any changes to the template will be automatically passed on to all account promotion profiles that are based on the template promotion profile.

To create a promotion profile

  1. From the application-level menu, choose View > Site Map > Data Administration > Promotion Profile.
  2. In the Promotion Profile list, add a record and complete the necessary fields.

Some fields in the Promotion Profile List are described in Table 19.
