Xline POS Special offer

Summary  

A new option has been added to the POS Special Offers called Buy X Get Y Free. This allows items to be added to an approved list that qualify for the offer; in POS once the number of items to be purchased matches the ‘X’ value, the number of items in the ‘Y’ value will be discounted for free.  

Configuration  

The new offer is now available on the existing Special Offer Lists form. There is an additional option when adding a new offer (Stock -> Pricing -> 7. POS Special Offers -> Add -> Option 2 Buy X products get Y free). The offer utilises a new wizard form for ease-of-use for the user.

I joined Intact’s marketing team in October 2023. My academic journey began at the University of Liverpool, where I studied English language and literature. Feeling that one degree wasn’t enough, I stayed and earned a Master's degree in creative and critical writing. During my studies, I wrote for various platforms, including a student newspaper and a famous Liverpool attraction. I knew I wanted to pursue a career where I could write daily, leading me to explore the world of content marketing. At Intact, I compile and write content for our website, upsell campaigns, customer newsletter, and manage our social media channels. The best part of my job is the opportunity to interview colleagues, seeking their insights and knowledge for valuable content, and that each completed task is followed by ten uncompleted ones. Outside of work, I’ll be at the gym, out for a run (jog), or exploring markets in London with friends.
