Globally Excluded Products Import and Export

Global Product Exclusions rules are imported as part of promotion import.

When configuring Global Product Exclusions rules, keep the following in mind:

An empty Global Product Exclusions rule isn't exported.
Global product exclusion rules are replicated with the campaigns and promotions of the site.
Global product exclusion rules are replicated with the campaigns and promotions of the site.
New promotion-level settings are replicated with the promotion.
The promotion.xsd top-level element <promotions> contains the element <global-promotion-settings> of complex type PromotionSettings. This element is the container of the <global-excluded-products> rule.
The <global-promotion-settings> element is optional and can occur at most once. The complex types ProductPromotionRule and OrderPromotionRule support the flag <disable-global-excluded-products>.

A site always owns a PromotionSettings instance. This instance can never be deleted, but only reset. The following is how the different modes behave:

<promotion-settings>	Update or Merge	Replace	Delete
with <global-excluded-products>	Global excluded product rule is created or updated.	PromotionSettings instance is reset to its initial state (meaning that all of its values are removed), after that global excluded products rule is created.	PromotionSettings instance is reset to its initial state (meaning that all of its values are removed).
with <global-excluded-products/> empty	If it exists, the global excluded product rule is removed.	PromotionSettings instance is reset to its initial state (means all of its values are removed), after that global excluded products rule is NOT new created.	PromotionSettings instance is reset to its initial state (means all of its values are removed).
empty	PromotionSettings instance isn't touched.	PromotionSettings instance is reset to its initial state (means all of its values are removed).	PromotionSettings instance is reset to its initial state (means all of its values are removed).
undefined	PromotionSettings instance isn't touched.	PromotionSettings instance isn't touched.	PromotionSettings instance isn't touched.

Note: If promotions are created with no <disable-global-excluded-products> flag, import sets the default value to FALSE. The import always updates the global-excluded-products rule completely. There is no partial update of the rule.
