Calculate Sales Promotion

Explanation

This activity is used to manually include the calculations of the sales promotion either in a customer order or in a sales quotation. Generally the sales promotions are calculated at the release, i.e., when the header status is raised to Released.

It is also possible to clear the connected sales promotions to a particular customer order or sales quotation clicking Clear Sales Promotions command.

It is possible to analyze the result of the calculation in more detail by clicking Calculate and View Sales Promotions command.

Note that the contribution margin for the entire customer order is not affected by charges. This means that the sales promotion charges are not reflected in the contribution margin. Also note that sales promotion charges calculated in the sales quotation are not carried on to the customer order when customer orders are created from sales quotations. The sales promotion charges have to be applied to the created customer order afterwards.
