With Retailers managing discount schedules and item settings, there is a need for the capability to schedule out when the system updates those items from the Update Products page within the Retail product hierarchies form. The current way to do this is to Update Products from the Retail Product Hierarchies page manually or immediate batch job. Unfortunately, Schedule Batch Job option does not allow for a later date to be scheduled, but rather batches out the update item parameters job immediately. There is no capability to set this date in the future so that, on a specific day (New Goods Sale Day for example) a set of items' parameters will be updated via batch (Prevent All Discount setting) and allow the set of items to be discounted at a future date.
