Description
1

Promotion Sample Testing has been migrated to GINESYS Web

Module:

GINESYS Web - Retail Management - Promotion - Manage - Sample Testing

Enhancement Summary:

The sample testing utility for testing promotions would now be available in web. The function of sample testing has been enhanced. The previous logic of promotion resolution has been changed and promotion is now being resolved as per the latest promotions available in POS.

Note: Only Item level promotions gets resolved in this testing module.

Scenario:

N.A.

2

Successive resolution of promotions on an Item based on priority

Module:

POS - Normal POS
POS - POS as Collection Centre

Enhancement Summary:

GINESYS is now providing an option to apply multiple promotions on a single item successively based upon its priority. Previously, if a promotional item was scanned in a POS bill, depending upon the condition for promotion applicability, only the promotion with highest priority was resolved. Now since the concept of successive resolution of multiple promotions has been introduced, the promotions would be applied in a cyclic order depending upon its priority. That means after the promotion with highest priority is resolved, promotion with second highest priority will be applied on remaining item qty. Hence, single barcode/item will resolve multiple promotions simultaneously but single quantity of an item will be considered in one promotion only.

Scenario:

Suppose there are two assortments -

  • Assortment A with items: I1001, I1002
  • Assortment B with items: I1001, I1003

Promotions running currently, from priority high to low -

  • P1 [Priority - 2]: Buy any 2 quantities from Assortment A and get 50% discount.
  • P2 [Priority - 1]: Buy any 1 quantity from Assortment B and get 10% discount.

Items scanned in the POS bill are -

  • I1001: 3 units
  • I1003: 1 unit

Since promotion P1 has higher priority, it would be resolved first on item I1001, out of 3 qty of I1001, 2 qty of I001 would be clubbed and 50% discount would be applied. Next, promotion P2 which is in lower priority would be applied on the remaining 1 qty of I1001 & I1003, flat 10% promotional discount would be applied.

Note: The web version of Sample Testing is also compatible with this feature.

3

Multi buy assortments can now be provided in Promotion definition

Module:

Retail - Sales Promotion - Define Promos

Enhancement Summary:

GINESYS has enhanced the assortment selection process in promotion definition. Along with the presently available option where only single BUY type assortment can be provided, the new enhancement would enable users to provide multiple BUY type assortments while defining a promotion. This enhancement has been made available for the following promotion types:

  1. ‘Memo’ level promotion
  2. ‘Item’ level promotions.
    1. Quantity Based Simple Benefit
    2. Quantity Based Slab wise Benefit
    3. Value Based Slab wise Benefit

Scenario:

Previously, if suppose 2 assortments were required as buy assortment of a promotion, the operator had to first create a new assortment copying both existing assortments and then use it as buy assortment in the promotion definition. With this release, now multiple assortments will be allowed in buy condition and system will automatically consider it as a single assortment/buy condition.

Note: The web version of Sample Testing is also compatible with this feature.

Promotion definition of BUY assortments with ratio of item quantity is now available

Module:

Retail - Sales Promotion - Define Promos

Enhancement Summary:

The concept of ‘Item ratio’ wise promotion is yet another new promotion type that is highly popular in the retail industry. This unique promotion type is only available in the Item Level Quantity Based Simple Benefit promotion. With the two existing BUY condition, ‘Item Ratio’ has been added as the third type of BUY condition. Using this BUY condition, users can define such promotions where on purchase of 1 item from T-Shirts assortment, 1 item from Denim assortment and 1 item from Formal Shirt assortment, the customer would get a flat discount%.

Scenario:

Suppose there are 3 BUY type assortments tagged to a single promotion -

  • Assortment A with items: T1001, T1002
  • Assortment B with items: T1004, T1003
  • Assortment C with items: T1005, T1007

Promotion defined - Buy any 1 quantity from assortment A, 1 quantity from assortment B and 1 quantity from assortment C and GET 50% FLAT Discount on the bought items.
Items scanned in the POS bill are -

  • T1001: 2 units
  • T1004: 1 unit
  • T1005: 1 unit

When promotion is resolved on pressing F8 in POS Bill window, software would resolve 1 unit each from assortments A, B and C (T1001, T1004 and T1005) and get 50% Flat Discount on all the three items. And 1 unit of T1001 will be billed at MRP.
