   Field	Header
   Rule Application	Select the following values: Select Distribute Adjustments among all the eligible lines check box to distribute the manual pricing rule adjustments among the qualifying items of an order. Select Combine Item Quantities if you want the pricing rule to have adjustments that can be applied in the scenarios where the combinations are not satisfied by single item, but can be satisfied by including Items, which belongs to same category or having same attribute values that are defined in the rule. For example, a can offer a promotion, which is defined as follows: Save 25% on any 3 R/W DVD purchase. If a customer buys two of Sony R/W DVDs and one of Philips R/W DVDs, then, in the general scenario, customer is not eligible for availing the discount. To avail the promotion, customer must either buy three of Sony R/W DVDs or three of Philips R/W DVDs. But, by selecting the Combine Item Quantities, users have the flexibility to consider the total R/W DVDs bought is three and provide discount to the customer.
   Exclusivity	Perform the following steps: From the Exclusivity Type menu, select the exclusivity type on pricing rules. Depending on exclusivity type, one or more applicable rules is applied on an item or an order. Can combine with any other Pricing Rule - Choosing this option would mean that the pricing rule can be combined with any other pricing rule. Cannot combine with any other rule - Choosing these options means that a pricing rule cannot be combined with any other pricing rule, regardless of Exclusivity ID. Exclusive for same Exclusivity Group - Choosing this option means that a pricing rule cannot be combined with any other pricing rule that has the same Exclusivity ID. Exclusive for same Rule Type for Item - Choosing this option means: An item group rule cannot be combined with another item group rule if they are targeting the same item and are associated with same Exclusivity ID. If the same item is targeted by multiple item rules, then the rule with highest priority is applied. If rules are not assigned any priority, then the rule that results in highest discount is applied. A shipping group item surcharge rule cannot be combined with another shipping group item surcharge rule if they are targeting the same item and are associated with same Exclusivity ID. If the same item is targeted by multiple shipping surcharge rules, then the rule with highest priority is applied. If Rules are not assigned any priority, then the rule that results in lowest surcharge is applied. For order group and shipping group rules, if you select this option, the behavior would be the same as described in the option, "Cannot combine with pricing rules of the same rule group for the same order." Exclusive for same Rule Type for Order - Choosing this option means: An item group rule cannot be combined with another item group rule associated with the same Exclusivity ID, even if they are targeting different items. The rule with the highest priority is applied. If rules are not assigned any priority, then the rule with the highest discount is applied. A shipping group item surcharge rule cannot be combined with another shipping group item surcharge rule associated with the same Exclusivity ID, even if they are targeting different items. The rule with the highest priority is applied. If rules are not assigned any priority, then the rule that results in the lowest surcharge is applied. An order group rule cannot be combined with another order group rule associated with the same Exclusivity ID. A shipping group rule cannot be combined with another shipping group rule associated with the same Exclusivity ID. From the Exclusivity Group menu, select the exclusivity group. You can group the pricing rules by assigning an Exclusivity ID to the pricing rule. By default, all the pricing rules are assigned to the Default Exclusivity Group. In the Priority box, assign a value that sets the priority to the pricing rule. The higher the value that is associated with the rule, the higher is its priority.
