You can manually assign a discount to every item in a sale, in one simple step. However, you need to assign the same discount percentage to all items. If you need to assign discounts on an item-by-item basis, click here for instructions. You may not need to use this whole order discount option very much, especially if your store has set up automated Discount Codes. But it comes in handy to know it's there in case you need it.

Select the "Add Discount to All items" option. A Discount box appears, with a Discount field and a Discount Code field.
