Author Publish campaigns in Discount Manager

Hi.
I can't figure out why the discounts that i setup in discount manager
is not published on my site.

I get no error messages, maybe I have missed something during setup.
I can create campaigns and discounts but I have no idea how this is
connected to my site.

Any thoughts or ideas?

The campaignmanager in Bizdesk works. Is there a connection between
these (i guess not) ?

Hi, there

There are couple of ways to "publish" your discounts created in Discount
Manager.

1) The main reason that we don't have "publish" button or menu in Discount
manager (as in legacy bizdesk) is that we expect the using application
center to stag approved discounts is the main scenario. Which means,
discounts can be created in the different machines (or domain) from the
production server. In a "data entry" tier, discounts are created and
approved in discount manager app and application center staging with FP1
will stage the approved data and then the cache should be automatically
refreshed. So in short, if your system is deployed in multi-tiers,
applicationi center staging in CS2002 FP1 is the best solution for you.

2) If you are using same server to input the data as well as the deploy the
production, then you can use BDRefresh.aspx or similar code. That means
you need to call CacheManager.RefreshCache("Discounts") or the .NET
equivalent - CommerceCacheModule.CacheCollection["discounts"].Refresh().
You can easily create your own page that does this.

In the future Commerce Server product, we will integrate the "publish
discount" with discount manager, so no matter which way you deploy your
system, one click in the discount manager application should solve the
problem.
