You can find this section under Price Adjustments > Product Discounts in the IRP Admin left navigation menu.
You use the product discount section to discount products in bulk by a specified percentage.
Your product discounts can be a combination of brands, categories and countries or you can apply them to individual brands and categories. Country must always be specified therefore the possible combinations are:
- Specific Country + Specific Brand + Specific Category
- Specific Country + Specific Brand + All Categories
- Specific Country + All Brands + Specific Category
- Specific Country + All Brands + All Categories
You can also use product discounts to increase prices by entering a negative percentage e.g. -10%.
Product discounts apply to the current web price of the product, not the RRP unless you tick the box called Apply to RRP. If you do tick the Apply to RRP box, when the discount is applied, the RRP value will be decreased by positive discount rates or increased by negative discount rates.
NOTE: When prices are calculated via the Product Discounts section, the price has VAT removed from it, then the Product Discount is applied to it and the number is rounded, before finally adding the VAT back to the rounded price. This can sometimes cause the final price to look as if it has a minor anomaly (e.g. 1 penny added) due to the rounding. (By way of comparison, if the discount was being applied by an IRP Promotion, the discount amount is calculated with the VAT included, and so would produce a more consistently rounded number.
