Chapter 105: Working with Store Promotion Types (WSPT)

Purpose: Use Work with Store Promotion Types to set up and maintain retail store promotion types, or to print a list of store promotion types.

About store promotion types: Each promotion you set up must be assigned to a type. Types can be used to group promotions for informational purposes. You can define promotion types in any way you wish, for example, Flyertype promotion, or In-store promotion.

About Min/Max only promotion types: Optionally, you can designate a promotion type as Min/Max only; this type of promotion will not offer special promotion prices, and pricing information will not display on the Store Promotion screens. You might use a Min/Max only type promotion for restocking a group of stores with seasonal items, for example. In this case you would use promotional Min/Max inventory overrides that remain in effect for the dates you specify when you set up the promotion. Stores that you want to restock can be assigned to ranks, and you can specify Min/Max restocking quantities for each rank. See Chapter 102: Working with Store Ranks (WSTR) for more information on assigning a rank to one or more stores, and Chapter 108: Working with Retail Store Restock (WRSR) for more information on restocking for a promotion.
