How to Add Different Discount Types

Coupons

To add a coupon to a sale, click “Coupon” after clicking “Add Discount” from the cart.

Open

Users will see the coupon dialog, where they can manually enter or scan a coupon.

Open

Once a coupon number has been entered, the user can click the “Lookup” button to search for the coupon.

If the coupon number is invalid, users will see a dialog, informing them that the coupon was not found.

After looking up a coupon, users can see the coupon details. The name and amount are shown in gray, just below the coupon number.

There are also a number of different labels that are shown below that, so users can see any important coupon details.

Once a coupon number had been looked up and is a valid coupon, the “Add to Cart” button will be enabled.

The coupon will be shown in the cart as a separate cart item, and on the sale items with the amount removed from the cost.

Employee Discounts

“Employee Discount” is the second option for adding a discount to a sale.

In the Employee Discount dialog, an employee badge can be scanned, or the employee number can be manually entered.

Once an employee number has been entered, the “Lookup” button will be enabled and a search will be performed when the button is clicked.

If the barcode is not a valid employee number, the user will see a dialog informing them that there was no employee found with that number.

If the employee search is successful, the employee will be shown below the employee number field, and the “Add to Card” button will be enabled.

The employee discount is shown on the sale items, and as a separate item in the cart.

Punch Cards

The third discount type is “Punch Card”.

Punch card numbers can can be manually entered or scanned in the Punch Card dialog.

After a punch card number has been entered, the “Lookup” button is enabled, so the user can search for the punch card.

If the number is not a valid punch card number, the user will see a message informing them that the number is invalid.

If the punch card number is valid, the user will see the punch card information below, including how many punches are remaining, and the discounted cost of the individual item.

Once a card has been validated, the “Add to Cart” button is enabled.

When “Add to Cart” is clicked, the punch card can be seen in the cart. The cost the customer originally paid per item when the punch card was sold is shown, as well as the discounted price (actual cost minus the amount the customer originally paid per item). These costs are shown as a discount on a separate item in the cart. The total for that item will balance at $0.00 and the user can complete the sale.

Scholarships

Users can also select “Scholarships” as a discount option.

The Scholarship dialog looks and works differently than any other discount type. The scholarship amount is shown at the top and the items in the cart that are set up to allow scholarships will be listed below.

The amount field can be edited by clicking on it. The user will see an amount dialog, where they can enter the percentage or dollar amount of the scholarship.

Depending on the scholarship, the user can click “Percent” or “Dollars” to the right. By default, “Percent” is already selected.

Scholarship information and amount are set, the user can click the button next to any cart items they would like the scholarship to apply to.

The item price will also be shown to the right. The user can see the scholarship amount that is being applied, the original price with a strikethrough, and the new price in bold font.

The “Add to Cart” button is enabled once an amount is set and at least one item is selected from the list.

In the cart, users can see the Scholarship listed with the items that were selected in the Scholarship dialog and as a separate cart item.
