Margin simulator
The simulator replays your recent sales (60 days by default) as if the discount had been active. For each product it shows baseline revenue, cost and margin, the margin after the discount at the same sales, the break-even uplift (how much extra volume you need to match today’s margin), and the margin at an uplift you choose.
It blocks a campaign if a product would sell below cost or under your minimum margin after discount. It also tells you where each cost came from. You can run the simulator by hand from the Promotions tab with a list of product IDs or SKUs (up to 50), a percent or fixed discount and an expected unit uplift.
A simulation is a calculation from past sales, not a forecast. It cannot tell you how many extra units a discount will sell.
