Magento Shopping Cart Price Rule: SKU option is not visible in Actions -> Conditions

Question

I'm using Magento V 1.9.0.1 and I tried to add the Shopping Cart Price Rule => Buy X Get Y.

I followed the steps in the magento guide but as I proceed I found out that the SKU option is not available when trying to add the condition. The screen print is below.

I'm new to magento and I cannot understand why the option is not visible.

Answer 1

By default, the sku attribute is not enabled for promo rule conditions. To use it for promo rules, go to Catalog > Attributes > Manage Attributes, click on the sku attribute, and set Use for Promo Rule Conditions to Yes. Save it, and you should be able to use it for promo rules now.
