Discount Name - the name for the artist’s promotional / sales campaign. This name is displayed within the store item when added to the cart.

Start Date -  the ‘date and time picker’ which allows you to select the start date and time for the current Discount Campaign.

Expiration Date - the ‘date and time picker’ which allows choosing the end date/time for the current discount/sale campaign

NOTE: Please keep in mind that you can only have one active Campaign at a time and you can not create a Discount Campaign that intersects or overlaps the date / time of another Campaign.

Grey dates in the date picker indicate that these days have already been taken by another Discount Campaign you've previously created.

Discount Groups

You can configure several Discount Groups with different discount amounts even if there are several store items included in all of these groups. The system will automatically apply the discount from the group with the highest priority. The priority is calculated by a simple rule according to the Applies to radio button selected: from ‘All’ (lowest priority) to ‘Store Item’ (highest priority). 

Example: You configured 3 groups with different discount rates.

• 1st group has a 10% discount value which applies to all your store items.
• 2nd group has a 20% discount value which applies only to the type: Products.
• 3rd group has a 50% discount value which applies to one specific store item.

As a result, all your store items will have a 10% discount except for those labeled with the type: Products - the store items with type: Products will have a 20% discount except for one particular item selected in the 3rd discount group which will have a 50% discount.

Discount Value - the percentage amount which will be applied as a discount rate to the current group.

Applies To - modified item picker, with new ability to choose all products and specific products (including categories), required.

• All - the default value, all store items will be affected by discount configured within this group (lowest priority).
• Type - displays the dropdown with Product Types (bundle, product, digital album, etc.). Multiple-choice is supported, and chosen types are displayed as tags. Discount applies to every item of the chosen type.
• Category - displays the dropdown with Categories (bundle, product, digital album, etc.). Multiple-choice is supported, and chosen types are displayed as tags. Discount applies to every item within the chosen categories.

NOTE: if different Categories incorporate the same store items, the highest discount value will prevail.

• Store Items - standard item picker with the ability of multiple-choice (highest priority).

Add Discount Group button - clicking on this button will add the additional Discount Group to be configured within the current Automatic Discount Campaign.
