Difference bewteen Salemaker and Specials?

Can someone out there please, please, tell me...

1)what are the main differences between salemaker and specials ( it seems I can lower the price with both).

2)Where can I find documentation that describes each of the Admin panel areas in detail for example, a detailed description of what media manager does, of what banner manager does, of what record artsists does etc.

Many Thanks:huh:

Re: Difference bewteen Salemaker and Specials?

You are right that you can use both salemaker and specials to reduce prices, but they have different functions nevertheless.

Salemaker is used to create a policy for reducing prices and then applying it to a group of (or all) products. You would use this to set up your 20% off January Sale for example.

Specials allow you to target price reductions at individual products. You might use this to reduce the prices of end-of-line products, while not touching the prices of new stock that you're bringing in to replace them.

The best place to find the documentation that you are looking for is "the book". Otherwise you would need to search individual items starting in the FAQ and coming to the forum if you don't find the answers you're looking for there.
