Overview
An item-specific discount is a reduction in the retail price limited to any selected item. Discounts applied to items will always override any global discounts.
Item discounts can be used to:
- Offer Quantity or volume discounts
- Offer time-limited special event sales
- Offer a sale to quickly liquidate products
