comment Can “be” be used with the modal verb “do”?
"I do be writing this sentence" sounds like pirate grammar. However, I searched the full text of Treasure Island and it doesn't seem to be used there.

comment Inverse/Reciprocal word for “affiliate”?
@Jay Context is everything. I agree that absent context it doesn't imply that the merchant has affiliates. In the context of this relationship, though, it denotes the key element, which is that the transaction is actually conducted with the merchant. The affiliate doesn't perform the financial transaction or the fulfillment.

comment What is the opposite of “Overridden“
To my mind, that says the opposite of what he intends. To say that the store level takes priority would mean that it does override a promotion that was set at a different level either higher (region? corporate?) or lower (department?). It's possible I've misunderstood either you or Ian, though.

comment usage of the word “premise”?
In the first instance, no, and it's difficult to suggest a replacement without more context for what you are intending to communicate. Checking the dictionary entry should help show you why the usage is incorrect. In the second sentence, you don't actually use the word premise. Given your first sentence, I suspect you are conflating "promise" and "premise".
