The system uses the Customizing settings to determine promotion IDs for the promotion data in the promotion message and create three promotions as follows:

  • For the period between 12.10. 2009 and 12.15.2009, the system creates promotion 1 with a quantity of 800 for Item A.

  • For the period between 12.10. 2009 and 12.15.2009, the system creates promotion 3 with a quantity of 400 for Item B.

  • For the period between 12.16.2009 and 12.17.2009, the system creates promotion 2 with a quantity of 200 for Item A and Promotion 2 with a quantity of 600 for Item B.
