Gross Sales this Promotion: The sum of Quantity and Extended price for all sale detail lines for a specific promotion, excluding the Buy X, Get Y and free/discount lines. This total includes both Buy and Get items. Gross Sales includes returns of regular sales made under a promotion.
Free/Discounted Items: The sum of all Buy X, Get Y line items that reduce the total sale price for the Buy X, Get Y promotion. Quantity and Extension shows as negative because these line items discount the amounts of the Get items.
