Applying Promotions
A promotion is a marketing technique that you apply to reduce the list price of a product or service. You can create such a promotion and restrict the scope, limit, and benefits so your sales representatives apply this promotion to specific products, for specific customers, and for a limited period.

You must have a cart that contains products to which you can apply promotions. You can apply or remove promotions or coupons on line items individually or all line items together (cart level).

The application automatically updates your pricing for respective products or carts, depending on the promotion applied.
