How To Add Additional Premium ItemsÂ
You can add AMB and MBR items as part of a premium set. To do that, enter the AMB or MBR inventory item as well as a choice (the choice is required). Premiums are free. Â
Navigate to Premium Sets in the Marketing ribbon
Locate the Premium Set Definition to be updated and click the Edit Icon
The Premium Set Definition Maintenance box will appear
Click the Add Icon
The Premium Set Dialog Maintenance box will appear, complete the following fields:Â
Earned At | Enter PAYMENT. The customer must pay for an item in order to qualify for this premium set. |
Response Sequence | Start with a sequence of 10 and increase by 10 for each sequence. |
Select Only Once | Enter N |
Paid Up % | The percentage the customer must may in order to qualify for the premium set. Enter 80-95%. |
Term/Amt/Line# | D (Currency) or T (Term) this will indicate that the customer either must pay a defined amount or be a subscriber for a defined time period to qualify for the premium set. |

Fulfill once per recipient? | This prevent the customer from receiving multiple premium sets within the same batch. This will not prevent multiple premium sets for all orders. |

Additional information below on other behaviour with this feature.
Agreements
For AMB items your options for 'Send to' on the premium set line are (from the original order): bill-to customer, ship-to/ordered by customer, referring customer. The 'Send to' customer you indicate on the premium set line is used as the participant on the agreement. The AMB choice specified the characteristics of the agreement, including length of service. Choice is required for AMB and MBR items. Â
The agreement created when a customer qualifies for the premium could be a new (initial) AMB agreement or a renewal. Â Renewals will happen if the customer already is an active or expired agreement and the bill to/ship to participant information matches. Â If multiple matching agreements are found then the agreement with the earliest expiration date is chosen for renewal.
Automatic Cancel (AMB)
If the order is for a subscription or an AMB agreement is cancelled, the premium item associated with the original order is also cancelled. Â For example, if a customer receives AMB item B when they purchase AMB item A and they cancel item A, item B is automatically cancelled by the system.
Memberships
For MBR items your options for 'Send to' on the premium set line are (from the originating order): bill-to customer, ship-to/order by customer, referring customer. The 'Send to' customer you indicate on the premium set line is used as the ship-to on the membership.
The MBR choice specifies the characteristics of the membership subscription, including length of term. Choice is required for AMB and MBR items. Â
When a customer qualifies for the premium, the membership could be new or a renewal. Â Renewals will happen if the bill to/ship to customer information is the same on the account as it is on the order.
Automatic Cancel (CIR)
If the order is for a subscription or an AMB agreement is cancelled, the premium item associated with the original order is also cancelled. Â For example, if a customer receives membership item B when they purchase item A and they cancel item A, item B is automatically cancelled by the system.
Wrap up
You should now be able to add additional premium items in Advantage.
