Configuring a Combination Pricing Discount

  1. Select the Enterprise, property, or zone, click Configuration, and then click Discounts.
  2. Double-click an automatic discount record to open it.
  3. On the Auto tab, select 4 - Combination Pricing from the Automatic (Automatically applied, operator cannot enter) drop-down list.
  4. (Optional) Enter a Priority for the discount.

    Priority determines the order in which discounts are calculated. By default, this field is blank (0) for all discounts, meaning that discounts are calculated at the same time. If you enter a priority, the workstation calculates all discounts in priority 1, then in priority 2, and so on. Priority zero (0) discounts are calculated last. The priority field allows Simphony to calculate discounts more efficiently.

  5. If you are configuring an automatic coupon discount with combination pricing, enter the maximum number of times the coupon discount can be entered on a check in the Max Count Per Check field. Enter a value of 0 to allow the discount to be added an unlimited amount of times to the same check.

    This field is active only for automatic discounts with the Activation Type of 2 - Coupon (Automatically applied, operator must enter).

  6. In the Trigger section, select up to eight unique Trigger MI Groups that invoke the discount. You must configure the triggers in sequential order.
  7. Enter the price to charge for this combo meal in the Amount Substitution field.
  8. Enter the maximum number of combo meals that customers can order per check in the Max Count field.

    In general, the Max Count field is set to 0 to allow an unlimited amount of combo meals on a single check

  9. Click Save.
