The different levels can then be set for each promotion under the Benefit area by selecting the drop down arrow.

Discount Management levels can also be selected for Price Rules.

New Promotion Triggers

Before only either/or was possible regarding triggering promotions from ‘Total Receipt Amount’ or ‘Item Amount with Tag’.

Now it is possible to use those triggers in conjunction with each other.

It is also possible to trigger promotions with multiple quantities of products. “Quantity of articles with keyword A = X” and “Quantity of articles with keyword B = Y” as triggers for a promotion.

New Attribute for Coupons/Promotions

Fixed prices are now possible to be set on discounts/coupon promotions. This means you can now set an item to be a different price for the promotion. For example if you have two items that are normally $1.50 and you want to sell 2 for $2, you could set the fixed price to $1.

Create Method External System Call

There are now two create methods with external system call. The previously existing create method is the external system call without feedback. The external system call with feedback is new. This create method is simply called “External system call”.

The new create method can be used, among other things, for voucher creation in third-party systems via API. In this case, the voucher can be posted normally and is automatically activated when the document is closed and printed by the confirmation.

Price List/Tag

Under Settings>Tags, when you select the tag you can now see the price as well.

RRP(MSRP) in Franchise 

As a franchisor, you can now communicate a change to your franchisee using the RRP on the item. The franchisees receive the changed EIA through the synchronization and not only when they create the first goods receipt after the change.

Central actual POS balances have been made uniquely identifiable by the commit below. The corresponding queries / constraints should also be added to the APIv3 service layers.

The recently added fields have been added to the ticket definition. Branch orders can now be exported and imported. The export performance has also been improved.

A few data points have also been added to the sales export via API. The coupon campaign is now referenced with name and number and the total amount is also exported.

Last but not least, when mergeListItemsimporting articles, the parameter can now be used to control whether the imported entries are added to the existing ones (true) or replace them (false). The previous behavior (replacement) remains the standard. The option applies to the following fields:

  • ArticleCodes
  • ArticleTexts
  • InfoTexts
  • MediaUrls
  • Prices
  • SubarticleRelations
  • SubarticleSelections
  • SupplierItemPrices
  • Tags
