Promotions policies

Current version: 10.0

The Commerce Engine encompasses extensible services that enable you to customize commerce functionality.

Note

Do not extend or inherit from out-of-the-box policies; instead, create your own. You can change the values in a policy by modifying the PolicySet JSON or the Environment JSON, depending on where the policy is defined and then re-running Bootstrap.

The following policies can be configured through the Promotions plug-in.

Policy

Description

Properties / Default Values

ExclusivePromotionPolicy

Identifies whether the promotion is exclusive. An exclusive promotion is the only promotion that applies for a given cart line, or for a given cart. For example, a cart containing two cart lines could have up to three exclusive policies applied.

GlobalPromotionsPolicy

Defines global settings for promotions.

Note

GlobalPromotionsPolicy are set in the Commerce environment JSON file. For example, the wwwroot/data/Environments/PlugIn.Habitat.CommerceAuthroing-1.*.*.json.

DefaultPriority - priority set when a promotion is created or migrated. By default, the promotion priority is 100. The highest priority value is 1.

MaxPromotionNameLength / 50

MaxPromotionBookNameLength / 50

PromotionsRequireApproval - Enforces the approval workflow on promotions. When enabled, promotions must be approved before they are applied to the cart. To test promotions without having to go through the approval process, in the Authoring environment configuration JSON file, you set the property to false. This allows you to add or remove conditions and benefits while the promotion is in the Draft state. You can also delete a draft promotion. This property is available from Sitecore 9.0.1 onward. Default is true.

Warning

Make sure to set this property to always set to true in the Shops environment.
