Promotional Code Description |
Enter a description of the promotional code. This can be used by users when searching for the promotional code. |

Promotional Code Short Description |

|
Promotional Code Access Code |
The name of the access code that will be associated with the promotional code (e.g. OnlinePromo_1). If there is an access code associated with the promotional code then the access code must be entered on the order to expose the associated promotion (e.g. an online user would enter the promotional code to activate it).
Once you have created a promotional code, the 'One Time Access Code' button will become active. This allows you to enter a number of single-use access codes for any one promotional code. For more information, refer to Adding Single-Use Access Codes to a Promotional Code.
