Marlin GTX enables you to track, report, and process supplier promotion rebates through Marlin GTX.
The Marlin GTX Promotions module has been enhanced to cater for almost any type of promotion, whether it be a simple discount, a discount subject to a minimum quantity purchased, or a discounted or free item if a minimum quantity is purchased.
Promotions can be set up with or without supplier rebates and the system handles the crediting of rebates when received from suppliers.
Please see Promotions Set Up for instructions on setting up Promotions, or Promotion Invoicing for instructions on applying promotions to sales.
