Working with Coupon Promotions (WCPR)
Purpose: You can use coupon promotions to offer percentage or dollar discounts on merchandise to customers. You can set up a coupon to apply to a particular order line only, or the entire order. You can also restrict a coupon to, for example, a particular offer, source code, or item, and make certain items exempt from a coupon discount.
You apply coupons to items or orders in order entry or order maintenance through the Coupon Discount Window. You can also apply coupons through the Generic Order Interface (Order API) by specifying a coupon at the order header or detail level; see Inbound Order XML Message (CWORDERIN) and Understanding Coupon Error Messages through the Order API for more information.

Two basic types of coupons: In addition to applying either a percentage or a dollar discount, coupons can be either:
• order-level (Coupon type = O): the discount applies to all eligible order detail lines.
• detail-level (Coupon type = D): the discount applies to the selected order detail line only.
Applying a coupon to an item or order: You can add coupons to the order at the Coupon Discount window, which you can display by:
• order-level or detail-level coupons: enter 97 next to an item
• order-level coupons only: press F21
When can you enter a coupon on an order? You can use the Coupon Discount Window work with coupons at any point in order entry or order maintenance as long as none of the items has printed pick slips or is in a closed (X) status. See Entering Coupon Promotions on an Order.
Note: In order for you to apply coupons to an order in order maintenance, you must have the Price Tables (E07) system control value at the Pricing Values (B31) screen set to Y.
How is tax calculated? Tax is calculated based on the actual price the customer is paying after applying all coupons and other discounts.
Do coupons apply to freight charges? Coupons apply to merchandise prices only; however, discounts applied to the merchandise on an order can have the effect of also reducing freight charges, if freight charges are based on total merchandise value. To offer freight or handling discounts, you can use additional discounting options, such as Working with Promotion Values (WPRO).
E-commerce orders: Applying coupons to orders is not currently supported through the e-commerce interface.
How an Order or Item Qualifies for a Coupon
Valid coupon? When you enter a coupon at the Coupon Discount Window in order entry or order maintenance, the system determines whether the coupon is valid based on your entries through the Work with Coupon Promotion Screen. Also, the system confirms that the current system date is within the Start date and End date for the coupon.
Qualifiers: Next the system determines whether the order or detail line qualifies for the coupon based on:
• order lines are open or held: There cannot be any detail lines on the order with printed pick slips, or in a closed (X) status.
• duplicate coupon entry: The same coupon cannot already have been applied to the item (detail-level coupon) or order (order-level coupon).
• source code: If the Source requirement? field for the coupon is set to Y, then the source code on the order header must be one of the source codes specified through the Work with Coupon Source Requirement Screen.
• offer: If the Offer requirement? field for the coupon is set to Y, then the source code on the order header must point to one of the offers specified through the Work with Coupon Offer Requirement Screen.
• other coupons: If the Coupon restriction? field for the coupon is set to Y for any coupons on the order, then there must not be a coupon restriction set up for these coupons through the Work with Coupon Restriction Screen.
• President’s Club: If the PC member only? field for the coupon is set to Y, then the customer must have the Associate field set to Y, and an Alt cust (Alternate customer number) must be specified.
• item requirement: If the Item requirement? field for the coupon is set to Y, and the coupon is:
• order-level: the item(s) specified through the Work with Coupon Item Requirement Screen must be on the order; in this case, the discount applies only to the required item(s). If a SKU is specified for the item on the Work with Coupon Item Requirement screen, the SKU must be on the order.
• detail-level: the item on the order detail line must be the one specified through the Work with Coupon Item Requirement Screen; you cannot specify more than one item requirement for a detail-level coupon. If a SKU is specified for the item on the Work with Coupon Item Requirement screen, the SKU must be on the order line.
• order detail line minimum: If the Minimum detail $ amount specifies a dollar value, then the regular single-unit offer price of the item or SKU must be equal to or greater than that value.
• order total minimum: If the Minimum order $ amount specifies a dollar value, then the total merchandise value on the order, excluding any non-discountable items, must be equal to or greater than this value. In this case, the total merchandise value is calculated based on the regular, single-unit offer price of each item or SKU.
Note: See below for more information on how an order or detail line qualifies for a dollar minimum.
• item restriction: If the coupon is detail-level and carries a percentage discount, the item/SKU in the order detail line must not be restricted (as set up through the Work with Coupon Item Restriction Screen). However, an item is still eligible for an order-level or detail-level dollar discount, and its extended price is included in the order total for the purposes of evaluating the Minimum order $ amount.
• non-discountable items: If the coupon is detail-level, then the item must be flagged as Discountable; also, non-discountable items are not included in the order total for the purposes of determining the Minimum order $ amount. If all of the items on an order are non-discountable, then the order does not qualify for a coupon.
For more information: See Understanding Coupon Error Messages in Order Entry for a listing of the error messages the system displays when items or orders are not eligible for coupons.
Combining coupons with other discounts: You can offer a variety of additional discounts and pricing options in addition to coupons. When combining additional discounts and repricing:
• President’s Club or associate customer: If the customer is a member of the President’s Club, or if the customer’s Associate field is set to Y, then the coupon discount is applied to the President’s Club or associate price. For example, if the coupon discount is 10%, the regular price is $10.00, and the President’s Club or associate price is $9.00, then the 10% discount is applied to the $9.00 price.
• Quantity break price: If the order detail line qualifies for a quantity break price that you have set up at the Create Item Price Screen (Quantity Price Breaks by Offer), then the coupon discount applies to the quantity break price. For example, if the coupon discount is $1.00, the regular price for a single unit is $20.00, and the quantity break price for five units is $19.00, the $1.00 coupon discount applies to the break price of $19.00 when the customer orders five or more units.
• Price override: If you enter a price override reason code for an item in order entry or order maintenance, then the coupon discount applies to the overridden price. For example, if the regular price of an item is $20.00, but you override the price to $15.00 and then apply a coupon with a 10% discount, the 10% is taken from the price of $15.00.
• Promotions: If you use Working with Promotion Values (WPRO) to set up an order promotion (Type = O), then this promotion discount applies after any coupon discount. For example, if a coupon applies a discount of 10%, an order-level promotion carries a discount of $1.00, and the item price is $20.00, the 10% coupon discount applies first, reducing the unit price to $18.00; then the promotion discount of $1.00 applies.
Note: An order-type promotion discount can be prorated against the order lines or applied as a negative additional charge, depending on your setup. See Working with Promotion Values (WPRO) for more information.
If the coupon discount exceeds the merchandise value: If the total coupon discount amount of a detail-level coupon exceeds the extended price of the item, then the extended price of the item is set to zero. Similarly, if the total coupon discount amount of an order-level coupon exceeds the total merchandise value of the order, the total merchandise value is set to zero. The coupon does not create a negative (credit) extended item price or order total.
What price does the system use to evaluate order or detail qualifying amounts? When a coupon has a Minimum detail $ amount or Minimum order $ amount requirement, the system uses the item/offer or SKU/offer price to determine whether the order or detail line meets the minimum requirement.
• Order detail line minimum: The system always considers the regular, single-unit offer price of the item or SKU when determining whether an order detail line meets the minimum requirement. For example, if the minimum is $50.00, and the customer orders two units at $30.00, the order detail line does not meet the order detail minimum requirement based on the single unit price of $30.00.
• Order minimum: The system always considers the total merchandise value based on the regular, single-unit offer prices of the entire quantity of all eligible items on the order when determining whether the order meets the minimum requirement. For example, if the order minimum is $50.00, and the customer orders two units at $30.00 as above, the order does meet the order minimum requirement based on the total merchandise value of $60.00.
• If there is a price override: The system still uses the regular, single-unit offer price of the item or SKU to evaluate the order or line for a dollar minimum if you use a price override reason code whose Override item offer price field is set to N. However, if this field is set to Y, the system uses the price override amount to evaluate the order or line for a dollar minimum. See Overriding the Item/SKU Offer Price for an overview.
Note: If there is no item/SKU offer price, the item or SKU can never qualify for a dollar minimum unless you use a price override reason code whose Override item offer price field is set to Y.
If you apply multiple coupons to the same order or line, the system does not subtract the first coupon before determining whether the order qualifies for the second one. For example, COUPA carries a discount of 10%, and COUPB carries a discount of $1.00. The minimum dollar value for both coupons is $25.00, and that is the offer price for the order detail line. The order line qualifies for both coupons.
Please note the following variations in evaluating how an order or order line qualifies for a dollar minimum:
Variation |
Detail Minimum = $25.00 |
Order Minimum = $50.00 |
basic qualification |
1 unit at $10: does not qualify 1 unit at $100: qualifies |
2 units at $10: does not qualify 1 unit at $100: qualifies |
multiple units |
3 units at $10 (total = $30): does not qualify 1 unit at $25: qualifies |
5 units at $10: qualifies |
quantity break price (as set up through Create Item Price Screen (Quantity Price Breaks by Offer)) |
1 unit at $25: qualifies 2 units at $20 quantity break price; regular single-unit price is $25: qualifies |
2 units at $20 quantity break price; single-unit price is $25; qualifies |
President’s Club or associate member |
1 unit at $20; regular single-unit price is $25; qualifies |
2 units at $20; regular single-unit price is $25 (total with President’s Club pricing is $40); qualifies |
multiple coupons |
1 unit at $25; 2 coupons, each requiring a $25 minimum: qualifies for both coupons |
2 units at $25; 2 coupons, each requiring a $50 minimum; qualifies for both coupons |
non-discountable item (the item’s Discountable field is set to Y) |
not applicable; cannot apply coupon discount to non-discountable item |
4 units at $10, plus 1 unit of a non-discountable item at $10: does not qualify Non-discountable item price is not included in the order minimum |
restricted item (as set up through the Work with Coupon Item Restriction Screen) |
dollar discounts: normal qualification rules percentage discounts: do not apply |
dollar discounts: normal qualification rules percentage discounts: 3 units at $10 plus 1 unit of a restricted item at $20: percentage discount applies to the 3 regular units |
price override (Override item offer price for the price override reason is set to Y) |
item/SKU offer price = $25.00, price override = $20.00: does not qualify item/SKU offer price = $20.00, price override = $25.00: qualifies no item/SKU offer price, price override = $25.00: qualifies |
item/SKU offer price = $25.00, price override = $20.00, 2 units: does not qualify item/SKU offer price = $20.00, price override = $25.00, 2 units: qualifies no item/SKU offer price, price override = $25.00, 2 units: qualifies |
price override (Override item offer price for the price override reason is set to N) |
item/SKU offer price = $25.00, price override = $20.00: qualifies item/SKU offer price = $20.00, price override = $25.00: does not qualify no item/SKU offer price, price override = $25.00: does not qualify Note: In this situation, an item without an item/SKU offer price can never qualify for a coupon minimum dollar amount. |
item/SKU offer price = $25.00, price override = $20.00, 2 units: qualifies item/SKU offer price = $20.00, price override = $25.00, 2 units: does not qualify no item/SKU offer price, price override = $25.00, 2 units: does not qualify Note: In this situation, an item without an item/SKU offer price can never be counted toward the coupon minimum dollar amount. |
Sequence of discount application: The following rules control the sequence in which multiple coupons apply to an order or single detail line:
• Detail-level coupons always apply before order-level coupons.
• Next, the system checks the Discount calculation sequence number; the coupon with the lower sequence number applies first.
• Finally, if two coupons of the same type have the same sequence number, the first coupon alphanumerically, based on coupon code, applies first.
Order entry vs. order maintenance: The system handles coupon entry and validation the same way in order maintenance in order entry; however:
• You cannot add any coupons to an order if any of the detail lines have printed pick slips, or are in closed (X) status.
• In order to apply coupon discounts in order maintenance, you must have the Price Tables (E07) system control value set to Y at the Pricing Values (B31) screen.

Overview: Use the Working with Coupon Promotions (WCPR) menu option to set up and maintain the following to support coupon promotions:
• Identify the coupons available in your company: Use the Create Coupon Promotion Screen to specify the date range, type of discount, and any restrictions or requirements for the coupon.
• Require an offer? Optionally, use the Create Coupon Offer Requirement Screen to specify that the coupon cannot be used unless the source code on the order header is associated with a specific offer, or one of a group of offers. The Offer requirement? field for the coupon must be set to Y.
• Require a source code? Optionally, use the Create Coupon Source Requirement Screen to specify that the coupon cannot be used unless there is a specific source code, or one of a group of source codes, on the order header. The Source requirement? field for the coupon must be set to Y.
• Restrict two coupons from being used on the same order or item? Optionally, use the Create Coupon Restriction Screen to specify two coupons that cannot be used together. This restriction can apply to both order-level and detail-level coupons, so that you will not be able to apply two restricted coupons to any two items on the same order. This setting would be useful if the two coupons together would result in a total discount that is greater than what you want to offer. The Coupon restriction? field for both coupons should be set to Y. When you use the Create Coupon Restriction Screen to restrict the first coupon from the second, the system automatically creates a restriction for the second coupon against the first.
• Require one or more specific items? Optionally, use the Create Coupon Item Requirement Screen to specify item/SKU requirements. If you require more than one item for an order-level coupon, then all specified items must be on the order. You cannot specify more than one item for a detail-level coupon. In either case, the Item requirement? field must be set to Y.
• Make an item exempt from a coupon percentage discount? Optionally, use the Create Coupon Item Restriction Screen to identify any items that are exempt from percentage discount coupons.
Additional setup:
• Making an item non-discountable: Set the Discountable field to N if the item should never have any type of discount applied to it. You will still be able to enter order-level coupons against this item in order entry or order maintenance, but no discounts will apply to the item, and its price will not be included in the order total for the purpose of determining whether the order qualifies for a Minimum order $ amount.
• Updating order detail coupon statuses: In order to update the Coupon status field in the Order Detail Coupon file (OECPDC) when you print a pick slip for the item or confirm the shipment, you must have the Pick Sort Program Name (C65) set to FLR0395. This program updates the coupon status to G when you print the pick slip, and to R when you confirm shipment of the pick slip.
• Applying coupon discounts in order maintenance: In order to apply coupon discounts in order maintenance, you must have the Price Tables (E07) system control value set to Y at the Pricing Values (B31) screen.
Important: In order for you to apply coupons to an order, the Price method for the source code on the order header must be set to D (regular plus reprice).

Items: An order has the following items: • AU123, one unit at $10.00 • CH456, one unit at $100.00 Original merchandise total: $110.00 Coupons: Enter the following order-level coupons against any order detail line (because they are both order-level, entering them against any order detail line has the effect of applying them to all eligible order detail lines): • 10$O, $10.00 off any order • 10%O50, 10% off any order over $50.00 Note: Each coupon has a Discount calculation sequence number of 5. Sequence: 10$O applies first because it is first alphanumerically; both coupons have the same sequence number. Result: Coupon 10$O applies the total order discount of $10.00 to item CH456, because it has the highest original unit price: $100.00 - $10.00 = $90.00 Note: As in the first example, this order-level dollar discount applies to a single item only. Coupon 10%O50 applies a 10% discount to item CH456: $90.00 - $9.0 (10% of $90.00) = $81.00 Coupon 10%O50 applies a 10% discount to item AU123: $10.00 - $1.00 (10% of $10.00) = $9.00 Discounted merchandise total: • AU123: one unit at $9.00 • CH456: one unit at $81.00 • Total = $90.00 |
|
Variation with different sequence numbers (the percentage discount applies first): Original merchandise total: $110.00 Result: If coupon 10%O50 has a lower sequence number than coupon 10$O, then the above example would have the following results: Coupon 10$O50 applies a 10% discount to item AU123 as described above: $10.00 - $1.00 (10% of $10.00) = $9.00 Coupon 10%O50 applies a 10% discount to item CH456: $100.00 - $10.00 (10% of $100.00) = $90.00 Coupon 10$O applies a $10.00 discount to item CH456: $90.00 - $10.00 = $80.00 Discounted merchandise total: • AU123: one unit at $9.00 • CH456: one unit at $80.00 • Total = $89.00 |
An Order-level Percentage Discount with a Minimum Order Dollar Total and a Non-discountable Item |
|
|
Items: An order has the following items: • AU123, two units at $10.00 = $20.00 • BA456, three units at $10.00 = $30.00 • MO789, one unit at $10.00 Original merchandise total: $60.00 Note: MO789 is flagged as non-discountable in the Item file. Coupon: Enter coupon 10%O50 with a 10% discount for a $50.00 minimum order total against item MO789. Note: Even though MO789 is flagged as non-discountable, you can still enter order-level coupons against it; however, if you attempt to enter a detail-level coupon against a non-discountable item, an error message will display. Result: Coupon 10%O50 applies a discount of 10%, or $1.00 per unit, to AU123 and BA456, for a total unit price of $9.00 for each. No discount applies to MO789, the non-discountable item. Discounted merchandise total: • AU123: two units at $9.00 = $18.00 • BA456: three units at $9.00 = $27.00 • MO789: one unit at $10.00 • Total = $55.00 |
|
Variation with promotional discount: Original merchandise total: $60.00 The order is also eligible for a 10% promotional discount set up through Working with Promotion Values (WPRO). Result: After applying the coupon discount as described above, the system applies the 10% promotional discount to AU123 and BA456, for a total unit price of $8.10 for each ($9.00 - $.90 (10% of $9.00) = $8.10). No discount applies to MO789, the non-discountable item. Note: The system still considers the order to have met the $50.00 minimum for the coupon, because the promotion discount applies after the coupon discount. However, the Order Detail Coupon records do not reflect the additional promotional discounts, only the coupon discount calculations. Discounted merchandise total: • AU123: two units at $8.10 = $16.20 • BA456: three units at $8.10 = $24.30 • MO789: one unit at $10.00 • Total = $50.50 |
|
Variation with lower order dollar total: Items: If the order had the following items: • AU123, two units at $10.00 = $20.00 • BA456, two units at $10.00 = $20.00 • MO789, one unit at $10.00 Original merchandise total: $50.00 Result: You would not be able to enter this coupon against the order; the non-discountable item, MO789, does not count toward the minimum order total of $50.00. However, the promotion still applies a 10% discount to the two discountable items, for a unit price of $9.00 ($10.00 - 10%). Discounted merchandise total: • AU123: two units at $9.00 = $18.00 • BA456: two units at $9.00 = $18.00 • MO789: one unit at $10.00 • Total = $46.00 |
As you enter and accept orders, generate pick slips, and confirm shipments, the system updates the Order Detail Coupon file (OECPDC) along with other order-related files. These updates are described below.
Entering a coupon: When you first enter a coupon in order entry or order maintenance, the system creates a record in the Order Detail Coupon file. Until you accept the order, the system cannot confirm how to apply the coupon discount. For example, you might delete or cancel an item on the order, reducing the merchandise total below the minimum required for the coupon; or the customer could purchase a President’s Club membership, effectively lowering the unit price of the items on the order, and the resulting merchandise dollar total against which to calculate a percentage discount. For this reason, the Order Detail Coupon record is created with the following values:
• Coupon status = N (new)
• Status change date = current system date
• Status change time = current system time
Calculate end-of-order pricing or accept order: When you accept the order or press F21, the system updates the following Order Detail Coupon fields:
• Pre-discount price = the unit price of the item before applying this particular coupon discount. The pre-discount price already reflects discounts such as President’s Club pricing or quantity break price.
• Post-discount price = the unit price of the item after applying this particular discount. The post-discount price does not reflect any additional discounts, such as subsequent applicable coupons or a promotion discount.
• Coupon status = P (processed)
• Status change time = the time when you pressed F21 to calculate end-of-order pricing or pressed F9 to accept the order
Generating pick slips: When you print a pick slip for an order detail line, the system sets the Order Detail Coupon status to G (pick slip generated) only if you have the Pick Sort Program Name (C65) system control value set to FLR0395. The status change date and time are also updated.
Billing: When you confirm shipment, the system sets the Order Detail Coupon status to R (redeemed) if the status was previously set to G at pick slip generation. The status change date and time are also updated. However, if you do not have the Pick Sort Program Name (C65) system control value set to FLR0395, the coupon status will not be reset at billing.
General ledger postings: The system posts both the regular item price and the total discount to the General Ledger Interface file.
Example: |
An order includes the item AU123. The regular Item Offer price is $10.00, but a coupon discount of $3.00 applies for a net price of $7.00. When you ship the order, the system posts a credit of $10.00 using the Sales/Merchandise Sale journal source, and a debit of $3.00 using the Sale/Merchandise Discount journal source. |
For more information: See the General Ledger Overview.
Tracking demand: The system posts the net, discounted price to demand-tracking files.
Example: |
An order includes the item AU123. The regular Item Offer price is $10.00, but a coupon discount of $3.00 applies for a net price of $7.00. When you enter the order, the system posts $7.00 to demand-tracking files such as the Order Billing History file. |

In this situation, there may be a slight discrepancy against the total dollar discount due to rounding. For example, if the total dollar discount is $1.00, and it is prorated against 3 units, the total discount for each unit is actually $.33, or $.99 total for the line. See How Coupons Work and Coupon Examples for more information.
