We want to limit the promotion free items extended to our customer, S_Fragment. We agreed with S_Fragment to provide a free keg item 1080 for every 10 crate item that they purchase. There are two scenarios available – per customer and per rule.

The promotion in this exercise is defined in a condition rule. The following procedure defines how to create this rule.
