Manage Promotion Folders
The promotion datasets that were defined now need to be categorized into special promotion folders. These promotion folders are categories for grouping promotion datasets and promotion policies per business requirements.
For example:
• To group by location, the Atlanta promotion folder might include all the promotions/policies related to the Atlanta location.
• To group by market, the Europe promotion folder might include all the promotions/policies related to the European market.
• To group by product type, the Computer promotion folder might include all computer-related promotions/policies.
Manage Promotions
A promotion is assigned an effective date and end date and is assigned a set of part/location SKUs.
There are two ways to create a promotion:
• Use the gateway
• Use the Promotions page

The implementation teams use the gateway to create and maintain the promotions. However, most users will utilize the Promotions page to create and maintain promotions.
