Applying discounts

Occasionally, you may wish to discount an item(s) in a transaction. Fusion allows for discounts to be created and then applied to transactions.

*For information on how to create discounts, visit the Discounts, Managing discounts, and Adding discount buttons to a menu sections of this manual.

Discounts are applied by simply pressing the discount button on the menu. However, as mentioned in the Discounts section, the different discount types behave slightly differently. To apply For more detailed information on the application of each discount type, see the relevant sections.

• Line-item discounts
• Subtotal discounts
• Redeem discounts

Things to note

• An item in the basket can only have one discount applied to it, so you cannot apply a subtotal discount to an item that has already been discounted via a line-item discount (and vice-versa). Additionally, you can’t apply multiple subtotal discounts or line-item discounts to a single item.
• Items that are in a promotion (aka meal deals) cannot be discounted.
• Discounts can be applied to the main item in a lead-through item, but not the individual items that make up the lead-through.
• As you need to add the item to the basket first before it can be discounted, if a user does not have enough credit/spend limit remaining for the item at full price but does have enough if it was discounted, the operator will need to allow overspend to add the item (or the user has an overdraft available.
