Discounts Dashboard

Updated April 30, 2024

Discounts Dashboard provides a detailed analysis of discounts offered to customers.

Both Shopify and Ellis employ a similar logic for discounts. These discounts are applied during the Shopify checkout process and are not directly linked to specific products. For further information, please refer to the Shopify documentation on discounts:

Actions that are not considered discounts include:

  • Manually changing the price of a Shopify product or using an application, such as through ERP integration.
  • Modifying the "compare at" price in Shopify.

The dashboard allows for filtering based on the store, time period, comparison period, and codes used.
