Tips & Important Notes

  • This module is very useful for managing special prices during limited periods, such as trade shows, clearance sales, or holiday promos.

  • Ensure the Event Start and Event End dates are set correctly so that the promo price activates and deactivates automatically on the right dates.

  • The prices or discounts set here will override the regular prices during the event period for the specified customers and products.
