A TPR is a temporary price reduction. There is a start date and end date and price that needs to be entered. TPRs are simply retail price changes that are sent to the POS on the day they start and then S2k will send the old price back on the day it ends.
1. To create a TPR the first step is to enter all of the basic info on the TPR Promotion that you want to setup, at the minimum the name of the TPR and the stores you want to apply the TPR to.
Then to flag as a TPR and not a regular promo, you much checkmark the box next to Temporary Price Reduction.
2. The second step is to setup the Promotion rules for the TPR…choose Promotion Rules on the right, then enter the date range for the TPR. THIS IS REQUIRED. Click the + sign and choose “Date Range Rule”
Date Range Rule: This
is to choose a start and end date of the promo. Click the Calendar symbol 
to choose a DATE and the clock symbol
to edit the time, otherwise the
time will default to 00:00:00 on the start date and 23:59:59 on the end
date.
You will then see the date range you chose to review. If you need to edit either one, simply click on the date and edit.
NOTE: AS DEFAULT: the start date will send the TPR price at the beginning of the day chosen at 00:00:00 and will send the OLD price back at the end of the day chosen at 23:59:59 you can edit as needed by clicking the clock icon.

For custom groups you can choose from a custom group to identify the items you want to have in this TPR OR you can change the custom group default to product by clicking on custom groups and changing to products and clicking the blue arrow to save selection.

Then you must edit the Select Value to choose the discount method (fixed $, % off, $ off), and then enter the amount to match the discount method. This action will apply to all of the items selected. Again use the blue check mark to make your selections.
The final selections will display and you can click on them to edit if needed (only if unpublished).
