Promo Groups
Only users with appropriate permissions can create, edit, and delete the promo groups.
To open the list of promo groups, go to
All new (created within the last seven days) promo groups are marked with the green asterisk.
To open the form for editing a promo group, click Add New or select a group in the list and click Edit.
Items in the Promo Groups form include:
- Promo Group ID: The promo group number
- Promo Group Name: The name of the promo group
- Custom Category: The category to which the items of this group belong
- CR Department: The cash register department to which the items in this group belong
Promo Groups can be combined with the regular items to create the Price Each Mix promotions.
When adding a promo group or price group, the system will automatically assign a number. You can change this number to your desired value, such as 302. Enter an appropriate name for the group, for example, "soft drink family two liter product." After entering the number and name, click Save to add the promo group to the list. This process can be completed quickly, typically in about 30 seconds per group.
For item groups reconciliation, do not move your stores over unless you plan to count those items daily.
