Important Notes When Using Discounts in Beeyond
- A location must always be selected.
- A discount is sent to the POS once only.
- So make sure the articles are added to the discount group on the same day.
- If there’s too much delay, set the end date to today to trigger a refresh — then move the end date back if needed.
- Articles created after linking the discount must be added to a new discount group.
- Adding them to an existing group does not work.
- Removing articles from a discount (unlinking) does not sync to the POS.
- Once activated, only the start and end date can be changed.
- The end date is inclusive.
- The end date can only be changed to tomorrow or later.
- A newly created discount must have a start date of tomorrow or later.
- A start date of today or in the past will not work.
- If you want different discounts for different locations:
- First create the discounts, then assign articles to each one.
- To deactivate a discount for a location, simply uncheck that location in the discount.
- The change takes effect at the POS in 1–2 hours.
