With discounts specific discounts (by percentage) can be defined. A discount is the deduction of a specified percentage from the posted sales price.
Discounts are calculated over the price of an article, rounded down to two decimals of the price and multiplied with the amount of articles posted.
An example:
That is why there may be rounding differences on the bill. But there will be no difference in discount whether you post 1 x 10 cups of coffee or 10 x 1 cup of coffee.
In the definition of article you have to activate the field 'Discount allowed'.
When you define the screen keys in the screen for discounts, you can allow the discount on three levels:
To undo a mistakenly granted discount, you have to generate a identical screen key like the discount, but in the field function parameter 'Undo' has to be filled in. The granted discount can be undone then ( within in the three levels previously mentioned ) and the originally posted price will be restored.
When calling the report 'Articles total' you have an option to call the discounts only, which will show you the total amount of granted discounts.
The total of the granted discount can be printed as a separate text on the bottom of the guest check. If several different discounts are granted on one guest check, the total amount of each discount granted will be printed on the bottom of the guest check.
Do not create a discount of 100%! It is not possible to call a report for this discount. Create a Spillage reason instead!
