	<GeneralSection><Paragraph>In the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/td/pcg" role="module">Pricing Control</GUIRef> module, <Link href="/baanerp/td/glossary/glossary#000319" role="glossary">promotions</Link> are defined for items and business partners. Promotions are used to offer extra discounts and/or free gifts on sales orders or sales order lines.</Paragraph>
		<Paragraph>To check whether a promotion is defined for the item and/or the business partner of a sales order, SSA ERP uses promotion matrices.</Paragraph>
		<Paragraph>SSA ERP looks for valid promotions in the promotion matrices for which a matrix sequence number is defined. The retrieval of promotion matrices is controlled by the parameter settings in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/td/pcg/tdpcg0100m000" role="session">Pricing Parameters (tdpcg0100m000)</GUIRef> session. For further information, see <Link href="/baanerp/td/pcg/tdpcg0100m000#tdpcg000.lpco" role="fieldhelp">Line Promotion Control</Link> and <Link href="/baanerp/td/pcg/tdpcg0100m000#tdpcg000.opco" role="fieldhelp">Order Promotion Control</Link>
		</Paragraph>
		<Paragraph>To retrieve promotions from a promotion matrix, SSA ERP looks for promotion matrices with a matrix definition and matrix attributes that match the properties of the relevant sales order. Note that all of the matrix attributes must match the properties of the order. When found, the promotion linked to the promotion matrix is applied to the sales order.</Paragraph>
