# 💰 Creating Normal Promotions

4. Click **OK**

**If you don't know the item number:**

**ℹ️ Note:** If an item has a replicate code, you'll be prompted to add other items with the same code at the same price - useful for product ranges like Cadbury chocolate varieties.

The add item window stays open after each save, ready for the next item. Details of the last added item display at the bottom.

#### Finishing the Promotion

1. Once all items are added, click **Finish** at the bottom right
2. Print your special shelf tickets
3. Click **Initiate/Terminate** to send the promotion to registers

The promotion will activate automatically at the scheduled start date overnight, or immediately if you initiate it.
