After enabling item-specific promotions in NetSuite, there are two main types of item-based promotions that can be created:
1. Percentage discounts can be applied to predefined groups of items. Promotions are set up by selecting eligible items, setting a promotional percentage discount, and saving the record.
2. Free shipping can be assigned to certain items on an order. A shipping discount is set for a particular shipping method and applied to selected eligible items.
Item-based promotions offer discounts at the line item level and are reflected on sales transactions. Examples provided walk through setting up a percentage discount and free shipping promotion on selected items.
