Discounts¶
By offering discounts, you can entice your customers and drastically increase your revenue. It is vital to offer discounts, whether they are time-limited, seasonal or manually given.
To manage discounts, Odoo has powerful features that help set up a pricing strategy tailored to every business.
Apply manual discounts¶
If you seldom use discounts, applying manual ones might be the easiest solution for your Point of Sale.
You can either apply a discount on the whole order or on specific products inside an order.
Apply a discount on a product¶
From your PoS session interface, use the Disc button.
