Promotions present in your source feed
When promotions are available through the prices returned in your source feed, with the default fields being {price} and {old_price}, our system automatically detects that a promotion is active if the value in the {price} field is lower than the value in the {old_price} field.
Centric Shoppingfeed then automatically applies the expected format for each platform by sending the promotion typically over a rolling 2-day period.
Example with the Amazon marketplace:

By default, Centric Shoppingfeed applies dates automatically based on the export date and the format expected by the platforms.
However, there are two solutions to set specific promotion dates, either by editing the promotion rule application date or by manually editing the relevant attributes of the platforms (accessible via the "Mapping" tab for each platform).
For Mirakl platforms, for example, the relevant attributes are (with the date format being "YYYY-MM-DD"):
Note: If the date attributes are empty, the automatic processing will be applied.
