Automatic PLU (barcode) selection
When a product is added to a promotion, the default PLUs for that product are automatically selected. If the selection is incorrect, follow these steps:
- Open the PLU selector and click "Edit SKU"
- On the product edit page, click the PLU you want to be made selected by default
- On the PLU edit modal dialog, check "Set as default" against "Promotion" and save
The product will now be set up. To fix the current promotion, either delete and re-add the product, or manually select the PLUs.
Margin Calculation
The promotion editor supports calculating margin by entering the buy price (excl GST) of a pack of products and a sell price (incl GST) of an individual product. The calculation is as follows:
Quantity sold per buying unit = SKU quantity x PLU ratio
Unit cost (excl GST) = Buy cost less discount (excl GST) ÷ Quantity sold per buying unit
Margin per unit = Promo sell (excl GST) - Unit cost (excl GST)
Final margin per unit = Promo sell (excl GST) + Total scan - Unit cost (excl GST)
If there are any warnings regarding margin, it may be necessary to configure the SKU quantity on the product page, or choose a different PLU (and therefore a different PLU ratio).
