Promotion status
The status of the promotion is determined by the configured dates for scheduled, testing, active, expired, and inactive periods. Refer to the details section for more information on configuring dates.
Status | Description |
---|---|
Scheduled | The promotion is scheduled to be deployed at testing locations and stores. |
Testing | The promotion is deployed at the testing locations. |
Active | The promotion is deployed to the stores. |
Expired | The promotion has surpassed its active end date and is no longer available at testing locations or stores. |
Inactive | A promotion is temporarily suspended anytime before the active end date. This status is set manually, unlike other statuses that depends on dates. |
For example, if a promotion is set to be active from January 10th to January 25th, with testing dates from January 1st to January 9th, the status of the promotion will be as follows based on these dates:
- A promotion set to be deployed at a testing location from January 1st to January 9th remains in scheduled status until the testing start date.
- A promotion deployed at testing locations from January 1st to January 9th is in testing status.
- A promotion deployed to stores from January 10th to January 25th is in active status.
