Important Tips
- If you choose to create a percentage discount, you must save changes before entering information in order for the system to switch over to percentage values. After saving you can then enter the correct values.
- If all but one item needs to be discounted apply a discount to the entire sale, select the item that should not be discounted, and set the discount in its item description to null.
