Personalizing PeopleSoft Promotions Management Pagelets

This section discusses how to personalize promotion calendar options.

Personalizing Promotion Calendar Options

Access the Personalize Promotions Portal Calendar page from the Customer Promotions Calendar pagelet, the National Allowance Calendar pagelet, or the Nat'l Allow and Promo Calendar pagelet.

Employees can decide what months they want to display on the calendar pagelets and what customer promotion and national allowance statuses they want to include in the calendar data.

This page is dynamic. The status fields that appear are different depending on the calendar pagelet from which you access this page.

Number of Calendars To Display	Select the number of calendars to display on the pagelet. This option allows you to display multiple calendars with different customization options.
Display Calendar	Select to display the calendar on the pagelet. If this option is not selected, the promotion and national allowance details are displayed without the calendar.
Starting Month	Select the starting month for the calendar pagelet. Options are: Current Minus x Months: The system displays data on the calendar beginning with the current month minus the number of months that is entered in the x Months field. Current Month (default): The system displays data on the calendar beginning with the current month. Current Plus x Months: The system displays data on the calendar beginning with the current month plus the number of months that is entered in the x Months field. User Defined: Use this option if you want the system to display the calendar by using a user-defined option. This option requires custom coding to enable the calendar to work with the user-defined option.
From Date	Select the promotion date that the system uses to determine if a promotion appears on the calendar. Options are: First Arrival Date, First Order Date, or First Ship Date.
Through Date	Select the promotion date that the system uses to determine if a promotion appears on the calendar. Options are: Last Arrival Date, Last Order Date, or Last Ship Date.
Display	Select the number of months, one to six, to display for this calendar.
Customer Promotion Status	Select the customer promotion statuses for which you want to view data on the calendar. This group box is available only when customizing the Customer Promotions Calendar pagelet or the Nat'l Allow & Promo Calendars pagelet.
National Allowance Status	Select the national allowance statuses for which you want to view data on the calendar. This group box is available only when customizing the National Allowances Calendar pagelet or the Nat'l Allow & Promo Calendars pagelet.

Personalizing Promotions Portal Options

Access the Personalize Promotions Management pagelet from the Review Promotions pagelet, the My Promotions pagelet, the Sales History by Customer pagelet, the Product Sales pagelet, the Discretionary Funding Status pagelet, or the Planned Promotional Funds pagelet.

Users can select the currency and default setID in which to display the information on the pagelet.

Customer Promotion Status	Select the customer promotion statuses for which you want to view data on the My Promotions or Review Promotions pagelet.
National Allowance Status	Select the national allowance statuses for which you want to view data on the My Promotions or Review Promotions pagelet.
From Sales Calendar and Through Sales Calendar	Select a sales calendar from which and through which to display data on the Product Sales or Sales History by Customer pagelet.
Period	Select a period of time within the selected from and through sales calendar for which to display data on the Product Sales or Sales History by Customer pagelet.

Note. The default setID is used to determine the currency in which to display the data if one is not specified on this page. The default setID does not determine what promotional data is displayed because the user can view data from all setIDs for which they are authorized.
