  • Updated

Description: Discounts are primarily used by Food and Beverage (F&B) merchants. They can be applied for specials on food and drinks even during specific times; like "happy hour." Choose an option below to begin.

Adding a New Discount Record:

  1. Access the MICROS POS Configurator.
  2. Click on the Sales tab.
  3. Select Discounts. This opens the Discounts Screen.
  4. To add a new Discount Record, press the Blue Plus Sign mceclip0.png.
  5. Enter the Discount Record Name.
  6. Ensure that the General tab is selected and configure the following options:
    1. Type: This can be set to Manual, Automatic, or Manually Enabled Automatic.
      • Manual: User will need to manually apply the discount on the check.
      • Automatic: Discount will be automatically applied to the check.
    2. Tax Class: Should be configured already. The site will need to select the appropriate tax class.
    3. SLU: Screen Look Up, which is a touchscreen button that provides access to a list of items.
    4. Print Class: These are pre-configured and normally should be applied to the guest check.
    5. Menu Level Class: These are pre-configured and the site will need to select the correct class for the discount (e.g., lunch or always available).
    6. Privilege: This is normally set from 0-3.
      • If you are a server and the privilege class is set to anything other than zero, then you will need to log in with bar or manager level credentials when attempting to add the discount.
    7. Amount: The dollar amount you want the discount to automatically apply when this discount is selected.
    8. Percent: The percentage you want the discount to automatically apply when this discount is selected.
    9. Category: This is best to leave blank unless the merchant knows what category they would like to select, as this can affect reporting.
    10. Effective From/To: This allows you to select a date/time when the discount starts and ends
      • Click on the calendar icon to the right of the option to configure this setting.
    11. Periods: Allows you to select an option that is pre-configured with the start/end times and days of the week.

  1. Navigate to the Options tab. All options listed here are at the merchant/vendors discretion.
    • Reference Required: This option will prompt the user to enter a reason as to why they are entering the discount. 
  2. Navigate to the Discounts Tab.
    • These settings will depend on the merchant or vendor preference for how they want these discounts to be reported and restricted. So if they want the discount to only apply to employee meals, they would check that box within this discount tab.
  3. Any other setting should be set at the merchant or vendor's discretion.
  4. Save the settings when done by pressing the Green Checkmark [mceclip3__17_.png ] at the top.

  1. Access the MICROS POS Configurator.
  2. Click on the Sales tab.
  3. Select Discounts. This opens the Discounts screen.
  4. On the Record List on the right, locate the Discount Record Name you want to remove.
