Create and Manage Discounts
Create preset discounts under Admin → Meny → Priser & rabatter → Rabatter (Menu → Prices & discounts → Discounts). Staff then selects a discount in the POS. Permission to use preset discounts and permission to enter a custom discount are controlled separately through permission groups.
Create a discount
- Click Skapa rabatt (Create discount).
- Enter Namn (Name), such as Staff discount.
- Choose Typ: Procent (%) (Percentage) or Fast belopp (kr) (Fixed amount).
- Enter Värde (Value), such as 10% or SEK 50.
- Optionally enter a Kampanjkod (Campaign code).
- Choose which items it applies to, as below.
- Click Skapa (Create).
Choose eligible items
Rabatten gäller (Discount applies to) offers three choices:
| Choice | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Alla artiklar | All items |
| Endast valda | Only your selection |
| Allt utom valda | Everything except your selection |
When limiting a discount, choose Varugrupper (Product groups), Menygrupper (Menu groups) and Produkter (Products), plus Exkludera alkohol (Exclude alcohol). Endast valda requires at least one group or product. Read the summary before saving.
For example, a staff discount can apply to food while excluding alcohol. Check the products' product groups, which determine alcohol exclusion.
Edit or remove
Use the pencil icon to edit the name, value, code or eligible items, then Spara (Save). The trash icon removes the discount. The list has no pause toggle or automatic start/end date fields, so plan how temporary campaigns will end.
Apply in the POS
- Add items to the tab.
- Open Rabatt (Discount) and select a preset, or enter a campaign code where the code field is shown.
- Check eligible items and the new total.
- For an item discount, open that item row and the Rabatt tab.
A restricted discount only reduces eligible items. Check the total even when the discount name is familiar.
Custom discounts and approval
Enter a custom discount directly in the POS. You do not create a separate open template in Admin. If the cashier lacks permission, someone with the required permission may need to approve using their PIN. An authorised user can perform the action directly.
Go to Admin → Användare → Behörighetsgrupper (Users → Permission groups) to control who may use presets and custom discounts.
Follow up
Check the discount and final total before payment. Discounts are included in sales and reporting records. Use names staff understands and review current campaigns regularly.
This feature is part of Vendion POS.
