What can you set for sales and discounts?

Answer

On the Sales and discounts screen you create a temporary promotion: a discount in euros or percent on chosen products, between a start moment and an end moment. A promotion that does not serve as a coupon is applied automatically at the POS. The screen belongs to the Gift voucher feature (€10 per month, excluding VAT).

Where to find it

Settings > Add-ons, button Settings on the Gift voucher card (/Settings/SalesAndDiscounts); if Gift cards is off, also via Settings > Money and figures > Gift cards and gift vouchers. New with the plus button (Add)

Explanation

The page shows your promotions as cards with their name and period. The window Sale & discounts first has a page with the details (name, coupon, period, amount, combining, priority) and then one page per category on which you choose the products. With Add all products you turn everything on. If a product has more than one promotion, the one that yields the highest amount wins at the POS, and with an equal amount the lowest priority. A price you type yourself wins over any discount, and a promotion is never applied to a return line.
