# Supplier Promotions
The **Supplier Promotions** page provides a central location for managing promotional offers from your suppliers. From here, you can view available promotions, review offer details and eligibility, accept or decline promotions, and monitor active, upcoming, or expired offers. Managing supplier promotions in one place helps ensure eligible products are promoted correctly and allows you to take full advantage of supplier-funded offers.
This doc will guide you through the Promotions process, including:

## The Promotions Page
The **Promotions** page displays all current and upcoming promotions available from your suppliers. From here, you can view promotion details, including the products included, promotional pricing, supplier, and the promotion start and end dates. This page makes it easy to find supplier offers and take advantage of promotional pricing when placing orders.
To view the suppliers **Promotions** page, select **Suppliers** from the main menu and go to the **Promotions** tab.
To view a specific supplier's promotions, select **Suppliers** from the main menu, choose the supplier, then open the **Promotions** tab on the supplier's page.

#### Supplier Promotion Details
Clicking on a promotion will display all available details, including the promotion settings, products, pricing, dates, and other relevant information.
Supplier promotions are displayed throughout Supply’d, including on the **Product** page, **Favourites** page, when creating a **Purchase Order**, and during **Expense Reconciliation**. Promotional products are identified by a green promotion badge beneath the product name, which also displays the promotion dates. This helps you take advantage of available promotions when ordering and verify that your supplier has honoured the promotional pricing during expense reconciliation.

{% hint style="warning" %}

{% endhint %}
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
#### Go the Supplier's Promotions Tab
1. Select **Suppliers** from the main menu.
2. Select the supplier you would like to the promotion for.
3. On the supplier's page, open the **Promotions** tab.
***
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
#### Click Add +
To add a Promotion for a supplier, click on or **Add +** in the top right.
{% hint style="success" %}
The button is only available when no promotions have been sent or created. Once a promotion exists, use **Add+** to create additional promotions.
{% endhint %}
The **Add Promotion** form will open.
{% hint style="warning" %}

{% endstep %}
{% step %}
#### Adjustment
**Adjustment Type\* \[required field]**
Select how the promotion discount will be applied. Depending on the option selected, additional fields will be displayed to configure the promotion.
* **Price Override:** Override the price to a new price, eg. $9.90.\
* **Increase $:** Increase by a fixed dollar amount, eg. $5 increase.
* **Increase %:** Increase by a percentage amount, eg. 10% increase.
* **Discount $:** Discount by a fixed dollar amount, eg. $5 off.\
* **Discount %:** Discount by a percentage amount, eg. 10% off..
* **Buy X Save Y%:** Enter the percentage discount that you receive when you purchase the required quantity of eligible items.
For example, a **Buy 3, Save 10%** promotion applies a **10%** discount when the **Minimum Qty** is set to **3** and the you purchase three qualifying items.
{% hint style="success" %}
**Buy X Save Y%** is a quantity-based promotion where you receive a percentage discount after purchasing a specified number of qualifying items.
**Examples:**
* **Buy 2, Save 10%:** Purchase any two eligible products and receive 10% off those items.
* **Buy 3, Save 20%:** Purchase three qualifying items and receive a 20% discount.
* **Buy 6, Save 15%:** Purchase six eligible products and save 15% on the qualifying items.\
{% endhint %}
* **BOGO (Buy one, get one):** Enter the number of qualifying items required (**Minimum Qty**) and the number of free items to award (**Gifted Qty**). For example, if **Minimum Qty** is **2** and **Gifted Qty** is **1**, you will receive 1 free item when you purchase 2 qualifying items.
{% hint style="success" %}
**BOGO (Buy One, Get One)** is a promotional offer where purchasing a qualifying product entitles the you to receive another product at a discount or for free.
**Examples:**
* **Buy One, Get One Free (BOGO):** Buy one loaf of bread and receive a second loaf free.
* **Buy Two, Get One Free:** Buy two qualifying items and receive a third item free.
\
\
**Best Practice:** \
It is best to order the **total quantity you expect to receive**, including any free items. For example, with a **Buy 10, Get 10 Free** promotion, you should order **20 items**, rather than ordering 10 and expecting an additional 10 to be added later.
This helps ensure your order is processed correctly and reduces the risk of missing free items.
This also helps during **Purchase Order Receiving**, where you'll receive the full quantity (20 items in this example), and during **Expense Reconciliation**, where the full quantity is displayed at the discounted price.\

{% endstep %}

#### Apply Adjustment
**Apply Adjustment To\* \[required field]**
Select whether the promotion should apply to **All Products** or only **Specific Products**, **Specific Categories,** or **Specific Brands**.
Depending on the option selected, additional fields will be displayed as follows:
* **All Products:** Applies the promotion to all products you buy from this supplier.
* **Products:** Applies the promotion only to the selected products chosen from your supplier's product list.
* **Categories:** Applies the promotion to all products within selected product categories.
* **Brands:** Applies the promotion to products from selected brands.
**Start Date**
Select the date the promotion starts. Leave this field blank to make the promotion active immediately.
**End Date**
Select the date on which the promotion ends. Leave this field blank to keep the promotion running indefinitely.
{% hint style="warning" %}
Promotions are applied after any [Customer Specific Pricing](/supplyd-erp/customers/customer-specific-pricing.md). If you have a special price set for a product, the promotion will stack on top of that price rather than the standard product price.
**Example:** If a product normally costs **$12.00**, but you have a special price of **$10.00**, and you create a **Buy 10, Get 10 Free** promotion, the promotion will be calculated using the special price. This means the effective price becomes **$5.00 per item**, not **$6.00** based on the standard price.
{% endhint %}
***
{% endstep %}

#### Click Save

The promotion will appear on the **Products** tab, **Product** page, **Favourites** page and when creating a purchase order.
