9 months ago Personally, I think it's better the way it is at present. If you want selective use of a code, it should start with none, not all.
For a small inventory it makes no difference. For a large inventory, you might have to do a huge amount of work to set up a selective discount code, removing products it wasn't meant for.

With the latest version of the Promotional Codes feature, there is the "Assigned Products" tab that defaults to "Coupon applies to ONLY the above products". Obviously, there would be no products there initially so this means the setup defaults to the coupon not working on anything if the admin doesn't specifically go to that tab and change things.
In every case, for a new coupon to work at all, the admin must to go to this second tab and either add products (if not store-wide discount) or change it to the "Coupon applies to all EXCEPT above products" and then either list the excepted products (not-store-wide discount) or leave it blank (store-wide discount).
A more intuitive way would be for the coupon to default to store-wide discount so (a) the coupon actually works upon initial setup without further input and (b) the admin only has to address the Assigned Products tab if they want to fine-tune the coupon. This can be very simply achieved by simply making the "Product List Type" default to Coupon applies to all EXCEPT above products". Since the products list is blank by default, it would make the coupon active and store-wide upon setup.
