Extending Products/Season End Date

Overview

To extend the dates products are available beyond the date of the original season end date, there are additional steps required if the product that you wish to extend is dynamically priced or has inventory configured. If the products that need to be extended are not dynamically priced, then ignore step 2. If the products that need to be extended do not have inventory configured, then ignore step 3.

Prerequisite Tasks

Be sure to check if there are products in your shop that are published, NOT dynamically priced and NOT configured with inventory and that should NOT be extended along with the extended season. These products will be extended with the season if you follow these steps. To handle these products that are published, NOT dynamically priced and NOT configured with inventory, and that should NOT be extended, first either dynamically price these products for the dates they are available for sale from today's date forward, OR configure inventory for these products for available dates from today’s date forward in the POS and Aspenware Commerce, and then follow the steps below to extend the season for desired products.
