Create discount schemes
Discount schemes let you run flexible promotions in Growmax ARC — percentage or fixed-amount discounts, scoped globally or to specific products or customers, with validity windows, caps, usage limits, and priority ordering to control what applies when several schemes could.
Before you start
- Know which products or customers the scheme should cover, and whether a percentage or a fixed amount works better for your margins.
Create a discount scheme
- Go to Discounts.
- Create a new discount scheme.
- Choose the discount type: percentage or fixed amount.
- Set the scope: global, per product, or per customer.
- Set the validity window — the start and end dates the scheme runs for.
- Optionally set a maximum discount cap to limit the total discount the scheme can give.
- Optionally use usage counters to track (and limit) how many times the scheme is used.
- Set the scheme's priority to control which scheme wins when several could apply.
- Save the scheme.
Manage existing schemes
- Go to Discounts.
- Open a scheme to review or adjust its settings, including its usage counter and validity window.
- Save your changes.
A new discount scheme: its percentage, scope and validity window. Active schemes apply automatically to quotes, orders and invoices.
Tips
- Use the maximum discount cap on aggressive percentage schemes — it keeps a large order from producing a larger discount than you intended.
- When schemes overlap, priority ordering decides the winner — set priorities deliberately rather than leaving them to chance.
- For ongoing volume discounts built into your catalog, use quantity-tier pricing on packs instead of a discount scheme. See Set prices and quantity tiers.
