Defining User Interfaces for Bundled Promotions


You can define how a promotion is rendered on screen at run time and what controls are available to users by defining user interfaces for individual bundled promotions.

To define the user interface for a bundled promotion

  1. Navigate to the Administration - Product screen, then the Product Promotions view.
  2. In the Product Promotions list, query for records with the Type field values set to Bundled Promotions.
  3. Select a bundled promotion for which you want to define data content.
  4. Click the User Interface view tab.
  5. In the Components list, which is the unlabeled list under the User Interface view tab, complete the fields that control the display of the current bundled promotion components.

    The Components list contains one row for each component or aggregate product that was added as part of the promotion definition. You cannot add any rows to the list in this view. Some fields are described in the following table.

    Field
    Comments

    Type

    Read only. Specifies the composition of the promotion component product. Values are as follows:

    • Components. Identifies a product that is a single unit. This relationship is defined in the Components view.
    • Aggregate. Identifies a product that is composed of multiple units. This relationship is defined in the Aggregates view.

    Product Name

    Read only. Specifies the product that comprises the promotion component.

    Sequence

    Integer used to control the component display order at run time. The components are displayed in ascending order of their Sequence values. Components with no Sequence value are displayed at the bottom of the list.

    Components with the same Sequence value are not displayed in any specific order. To control the exact display order, you must assign a different numeric Sequence value to each component.

    Hide

    Select to hide the component in the Edit Promotion view at run time. Deselect to display the component in the Edit Promotion view at run time.

    Hiding a component is useful if the component is mandatory in a bundled promotion and cannot be modified. Hiding these components saves space on the view and helps users to focus on the components that require their attention.

    Read Only

    Select to display the component as read-only at run time. Deselect to display the component as editable at run time.

    Designating a read-only status is useful for components with quantities that cannot be modified, for example, a component with minimum and maximum cardinality values of one. When the Read-only check box is selected, the Add, Delete, and Update buttons of the component are hidden so that a user cannot change the quantity of that component.

    Hide Image

    Select this check box to hide the graphic image of the component at run time. This action collapses the space that the image would have occupied, thus saving screen space and reducing the need for users to use the vertical navigation buttons in the Edit Promotion view. Deselect this check box to display the graphic image of the component at run time.

    Display Control

    Specifies the control with which each listed component is selected in the Add Product dialog box at run time. The appropriate control is indicated by the type and cardinality of the component. The values are as follows:

    • Quantity Box. Adds a numeric field to enable users to enter a quantity for the component. A quantity box is for an aggregate component with a maximum cardinality greater than one and for which the quantity can be greater than one for each product.
    • Check Box. Adds a check box to enable users to specify whether the component is included in (check box is selected) or excluded from (check box is deselected) the bundled promotion. A check box is for an aggregate component with a maximum cardinality greater than one, but for which users can pick no more than one of each individual product.
    • No Control. Does not add any control so that users can select only one item from the list. No control is for an aggregate component with a maximum cardinality of one so that users can select only one product.
