How do I set up Discount Coupons?
Sales Discount-Coupons
With osConcert... it is possible to generate unlimited Discount-Coupons or Gift Vouchers.
The Administrator can send COUPON CODES to registered customers.
Customers can REDEEM codes at the Checkout Payment page.
Admin>Orders>Vouchers/Coupons>Discount Coupons (Enable existing Coupons here)
Goto Admin>Orders>Vouchers/Coupons (Set up new coupons here)
Click the ‘New Discount Coupon’. Create the conditions for your Coupon with the help of the guide on the right side.
We can create Fixed Discount or Percentage Discount (add % to the value)
Usually the “All Categories” is suffice but you can apply the discount coupon to a certain category or product.
Click the PREVIEW button and click the CONFIRM button when you are satisfied the conditions are correct.
This should save the coupon to the Coupon Name list and you may need to click the status button from RED to GREEN to activate it. Admin>Orders>Vouchers/Coupons>Discount Coupons
That should have created and activated a coupon and its COUPON CODE that you can send to your customers.
Customers will be able to see this page...where they can enter their given Coupon Code and Redeem their coupon with the Validate Button
But before we do that we should also set the Order Totals in the osConcert to display coupon discount correctly at checkout.
Admin>Payment>Advanced>Order Totals
In the Order Totals module first DELETE the already installed modules (SubTotal, Total etc) and then RE-INSTALL with Discount Coupons most likely your second module, AFTER SubTotal and then the Total module must be the last to install.
This will give a correct order display in the checkout confirmation page.

Emailing Discount Coupons
After the Discount-Coupon is created it can be emailed to your customers. Click and highlight the Coupon-tab and click on the EMAIL icon to open the coupon-email generator.
From the pull down menu, select to whom you want to email the Discount Coupons to. Use the wysiwyg editor to edit the Discount Coupon text.
Click the PREVIEW button to preview the Discount Coupon Email. Then click the SEND EMAIL button.
Your customers will receive the Coupon by email.
All a customer need to do when they receive the COUPON code from you, is tick the Redeem Gift Voucher tick-box on the front end and enter the Voucher code in the appropriate REDEEM box where it now appears in the checkout payment process.
Note that the discount will be calculated and shown in all Order Details and in Reports inside osConcert.
