What's New in Automatic Deactivation of Expired Promotions

Starting in NetSuite 2025.2, the system will automatically deactivate promotions that have expired for more than one year after their end date. This enhancement is designed to improve the overall performance of the promotions engine and related features by reducing the clutter of inactive promotions.

Why Automatic Deactivation Matters

Having numerous active promotions can hinder system performance, particularly when using features like Auto-Apply Promotions. By deactivating expired promotions systematically, businesses can experience notable improvements in several key areas:

  • Transaction Efficiency: Adding items and submitting transactions will become faster, especially when relying on the Auto-Apply Promotions feature.
  • eCommerce Operations: For SuiteCommerce and SuiteCommerce Advanced users, placing orders and managing shopping carts will be less cumbersome, leading to enhanced user experiences.
  • Promotion Code Application: Manual application of promotion codes across platforms will also become less tedious, improving responsiveness.

Tracking Promotion Deactivation

Administrators and other users can monitor changes to promotion status using the System Notes v2 Workbook. This tool allows users to see if a promotion was deactivated automatically or manually, giving clear insights into promotion management history and enhancing compliance with marketing strategies.

Who This Affects

  • Administrators: Responsible for tracking and managing promotions.
  • Developers: May need to adjust scripts or integrations related to promotions.
  • Marketers: Benefit from cleaner promotion management, leading to better targeting.

Key Takeaways

  • Expired promotions will automatically deactivate after one year starting in 2025.2.
  • Enhanced system performance and transaction efficiency.
  • Improved user experience in eCommerce sites with reduced clutter.
  • Automated tracking of deactivations through System Notes v2 Workbook.
