i want to set up a campaign related discount. it should only be applied to an order where i select that particular campaign as applying.
i set up the line discount for all products and put all my contacts into the segment. the idea being that the discount would only be applied to sales orders where i select the relevant campaign.
however, when set up, the discount is applied to all orders regardless of whether i fill in the campaign field on the order or not.
any solutions? i have looked through various manuals and see little of help on campaigns (beyond tr-app c)
Check if you haven’t set up some other (maybe permanent) discounts.
NAV is very smart in applying discounts - if conditions for applying overlap for several discount schemes (e.g. time-based with Customer Discount or Amount based discount), NAV chooses “best for Customer”, that is, the one giving minimal possible price to Customer.
-not only Campaigns - ANY other possible discounts (Sales Prices).
To check if (and how much) are defined, click on Sales Prices in Item Information pane. If there is only the one you defined, then you have set it up not in the way you expected it to work and error is in Campaign definition, not NAV itself.
Regarding Manuals - I advised you some days ago to check if CustomerSource is available to you - that site contains some additional training materials to those in Product disk. I have the PDFs, but, as they have this:
Microsoft Official Training Materials for Microsoft Dynamics ™ Your use of this content is subject to your current services agreement
in page footer, these files can not be put here in Downloads (or elsewhere in public domain).
that’s where i started. i then went to appendix c for the worked solution just in case. (referred to tr-app c in my earlier post). i’m trying hard to find solutions before pestering people
I guess your first statement is incorrect - you want the system to only apply a campaign related discount when the campaign is assigned to the header of a sales order, whereas by implication of this post you are stating that because the client is in the segment of a campaign they are currently in an active campaign and therefore get the discount whether the discount code is applied to the order or not. I would guess therefore that this is the way Microsoft have designed it and if you want it to only apply after you have the campaign code in the header then you have no choice but to modfy the system to cater for this new functionality I am afraid.
This is all based on reading the flow of this post and not CRM experience!
