Voucher Promotions are the type of Promotions that can be redeemed by using Vouchers or "tickets". The Vouchers are issued by Organizations or businesses to maintain customer loyalty and attract new customers, e.g., reward coupons issued by supermarkets that accumulate points with each shopping and give discounts after a certain number of points have been collected.

    • The setup options below will change dynamically depending on the Promotion Type selected

Adding & Editing Products

  • Whether adding a New Promotion or Editing an Existing Promotion, the process for adding Products remains the same
  • To Add a New Product, Product Group, Keylist, Sort, Type, SortGroup, Type Group, or All Products to a Voucher Price Promotion, click on the 'Add' button in the Products Section


  • A similar screen to below will appear with options for adding a Product or Product Group, a KeyList , or a Sort, Type, or All Products


  • Depending on the selection made the next part of the workflow and the resulting options may change, however, the below images follow through with adding a single Product; additional notes explain the differences when other options are chosen
  • In this case, the 'Product or Group' button is clicked which will open another window as shown below allowing for selecting a Product or Product Group:
    • If 'KeyList' had been selected, a window showing a list of the System's KeyLists would display & alternatively, if 'Sort/Type/All' had been selected, a list of all of the System's Sorts, SortGroups, Types, and TypeGroups as defined in Global Settings will show (this list will also have an option for selecting All Products)


  • By double-clicking on either a Group or a Product, that Group or Product will be selected (same goes for  KeyList, Sort, Type, etc.)
  • After the selection, a small window will appear where additional details for the Product as it relates to the Promotion can be configured
  • The 'Select Product or KeyList' button can be used to select a different Product, Product Group, KeyList, Sort, Type, etc.

  • Product Name (this label will vary and will match with the selection chosen; e.g., Product Group, KeyList, SortGroup, etc.)
    • Shows the current selection
    • BackOffice will remember the last Product Size and Pricing options entered and display them when the next Product is added
    • If the Promotion features all sizes for a Product, the Product needs to be entered separately for each size
  • Size

    • If a KeyList has been selected, the drop-down will be greyed-out - a Size cannot be selected for a KeyList

  • Pricing/Discount Options
    • Use Price
