Manufacturer Coupons

A manufacturer coupon code or barcode can be entered in the webshop to get a discount (amount or percentage) on the item or all items in the shopping basket. There is no difference in the features of the store coupon and manufacturer coupon. The difference lies only in the origin of the coupon. The manufacturer coupons are issued by the manufacturer of a product. The customers see no difference between the store and manufacturer coupons.

To create a manufacturer coupon:

Step 1: Click on: LS Retail - Backoffice > Coupons > Manufacturer Coupon List.

Step 2: Create a new manufacturer coupon.

Step 3: Under the 'General' FastTab specify the description of the manufacturer coupon and fill in any other necessary fields.

Step 4: Under the 'Use Restriction' FastTab in the 'Type' field select whether the manufacturer coupon is valid for an Item, Product Group, Item Category or all items.

Step 5: In the 'No.' field select the corresponding number according to your choice in the 'Type' field.

This way you can create as many lines for each item, product group or item category as needed to include in the manufacturer coupon.

Using the 'Exclude' check box you can also forbid usage of the manufacturer coupon for any item, product group or item category.

Step 6: Under the 'Use' FastTab, in the 'Calculation Type' field select 'Discount' and in the 'Discount Type' field select either amount or percentage discount type.

Step 7: In the 'Value' field specify the discount value the manufacturer coupon gives.

Step 8: Check and fill in any other necessary fields. For example, you can also define the number of items a manufacturer coupon needs to be valid in the 'No. of Items to Trigger' field or a quantity of items to which a coupon can be applied in the 'Apply to No. of Items' field or which item line the coupon should affect in the 'Affects' filed. You can also define the period when the coupon should be valid under the 'Validation Period' FastTab.
