Description
applyDiscountToSingleItemOnly
If set to true, the discount is applied only when the buyer purchases multiple quantities of a single item in the promotion. Otherwise, the promotional discount applies to multiple quantities of any items in the promotion. Different variations of a multi-variation item are considered to be the same item. Note that this flag is not relevant if the inventoryCriterion container identifies a single listing ID for the promotion.
budget
This sets the budget for the CODED_COUPON promotion type. Supported values range from 100-1000000. Supported currency codes include USD, GBP, EUR, and AUD.

Note: The budget value for an active or paused promotion can not be decreased.

Note: The Currency Code for 'budget' must be the same as the Currency Code for 'maxDiscountAmount'.

couponConfiguration
The configuration of a coded coupon promotion.
description
Required for CODED_COUPON promotions, this is the seller-defined "tag line" for the offer, such as "Save on designer shoes." The tag line appears under the "offer-type text" that is generated for the promotion and is displayed under the offer tile that is shown on the seller's All Offers page and on the event page for the promotion. This tag line is not used with volume pricing promotions.

Note: Offer-type text is a teaser that's presented throughout the buyer's journey through the sales flow and is generated by eBay. This text is not editable by the seller—it's derived from the settings in the discountRules and discountSpecification fields—and can be, for example, "Extra 20% off when you buy 3+".
