Configure a discount

Introduction

This tutorial explains how to configure and apply discounts in the Point of Sales application. You can use a discount manually from the POS, or creating a code or QR code to be typed or scanned from the POS.

BMI Leisure discounts can be a discount percentage or a fixed amount that employees can manually apply on the Point of Sales but you can also publish a code on social media or print QR codes and distribute them.

By default discounts apply to all products, but you can also exclude some product groups or specific products so that they are not eligible for discounts.

On product group level, you need to consider those two settings (Menu - Products - Configuration - Groups) :

If they are on, they allow discount codes and Membership discounts. If they are Off, they don't. Make sure to set this up correctly when configuring discounts.

The same settings can be applied on a Product level in Configuration - Advanced
