@pickapaper@wastingtime101 It DID move although it's been years. It got moved when SH came into being & the Marketing tab was created, I don't recall if those 2 things happened at the same time.
I can't remember where it was before that, I believe it was in the Store functions. It's been a long time tho & I I can't remember exactly. I might have an old screen shot somewhere, but it would take way too long to find it. But it defintely moved & I remember a lot of people having trouble finding it b/c of that. I still regularly see people having trouble finding it, 2 today. But yes, it has been where it is for years now, def not forever though. In fact, it was at the old place much longer than it's been in SH, just b/c SH is still relatively new if you've been around since the beginning of eBay 😀
ETA: It used to be a special benefit for having a store, it's coming back to me, so that seems right that it was in the Store functions. I remember it was one of the reasons I got a store & then it never worked all that well for me, so I quit doing the MM Sales (it was called Markdown Manager) years before it got moved & I assume it's available to all now.

@simply-the-best-for-you Nope- it was there last Month, the month before and before and before; in the 'Seller Tools' because THAT is where it belongs.
On your seller hub, it's under "Marketing". There's a drop-down menu and "Discounts" is located there.
I don't know why they keep moving it. Doesn't make sense to me.
That's where it's always been.
All I can guess is there's a different, secondary path users like @yesterdazed-newz were using? How/where were you accessing discounts previously? I've seen a few reports this week so it sounds like a link was removed from somewhere that wasn't the primary Seller Hub > Marketing > Discounts path.

I've run a lot of discount sales over the years and I've never accessed it through the Marketing link. I can't remember exactly where it was, but it was either under "shortcuts" or "selling tools". And I'm sure at one time it was called "markdown manager" and I used that link. Wherever it was, that link has now been removed and I had to look to see where to find it now, under Marketing.
Thanks @pickapaper . Those links on the Overview page are subject to change at any time, and they are not the "permanent" links to access tools.
It sounds like eBay removed a selling tool shortcut link, but the perma-link didn't change.
If it helps, there is a panel on Overview titled "Shortcuts" which is entirely seller-generated. You can customize and add/remove links as you see fit. You can add the discounts link there if you want a shortcut on the Overview page.

@wastingtime101@yesterdazed-newz It was there (Selling Tools) as of a week ago and was since Seller Hub started years ago. I guess the ebay wizards decided that managing discounts (sales, shipping discounts, coupons) was NOT a 'Seller Tool'??? (dolts)
Thanks for the directions on the 'Shortcuts' as I made one for it (what a pain, having to open another window, click Marketing, copy then paste in the 1st page open and save (doesn't 'take' until you do a space after the last digit on the copied url).

·6 months agoNope, discounts, coupons etc are only available for Store Subscribers. The peons who don't have a Store don't have access.

Thank you.
If I can't find something, I just ask Google where to find it. 😂
