Ace Hardware: Edit Dynamic Promotion sale dates

Note: This feature only applies to Ace Hardware stores.

When Ace Hardware Dynamic Promotions are set up in Paladin, the promotion sale dates are specified in two ways:

• In the pricing plan
• Individually for each item in all sale lists that are included in the pricing plan

Tip: Sales list item dates, when provided by Ace Hardware, always take precedent over the pricing plan dates.

Sale list item dates are saved in your database and cannot be viewed in Paladin.

Ace Hardware Dynamic Promotion example

In this scenario	This happens
Pricing Plan A is set up for an Ace Hardware Dynamic Promotion and includes Sale List Pricing Plan A sale dates are January 1-30. In Sale List B: Item 1 sale dates are January 1-15 Item 2 sale dates are not	Item 1 is on sale from January 1-15 because its sale list dates take precedent over the pricing plan. Item 2 is on sale from January 1-30 because it inherits the sale dates from the pricing plan.

To change the dates for an Ace Hardware Dynamic Promotion, update them in the associated pricing plan. When you do this, the Update Sale Dates window opens, and you have the option to automatically apply the new pricing plan dates to all sale list items in the pricing plan.
