Through no small amount of blood, sweat and tears, we have put together a big release for Retail Pro Prism. Okay maybe no blood, but there had to be a hangnail here or there and certainly a few finger cramps. Suffice to say, the team has put a lot of effort into bringing some exciting new features and functionality and maybe stepped on a few bugs here and there as well.
Highlights in this release include…
New Promotions Module
Retail Pro Prism gives you incredible flexibility and creativity in the application of promotions at POS – even more so than Retail Pro 9!
It includes several easy templates based on popular promotion types. When creating a promotion, you just select the template that most closely matches the type of promotion you want to create. The template determines which fields will be available in the UI. Using the provided templates, you can create an almost unlimited variety of promotions.
| Template Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Item | Applies a discount amount, percentage, or a specific price to one or more items that meet the promo’s validation rules. |
| Quantity | Applies a discount amount, percentage, or a specific price to the items that meet the filter criteria are listed at the specified quantity. |
| Tiered | Applies a different discount depending on the subtotal. Typically, the greater the subtotal, the greater the discount applied. For example, spending $50 earns a 10% discount; spending $100 earns a 15% discount; spending $150 earns a 20% discount. |
| Rolling | Similar to tiered promotion, except the discounts are based on the quantity purchased. For example, buying 3 units earns a 10% discount; buying 5 earns a 15% discount; buying 15 earns a 20% discount. |
| Pack | Assigns a specific price to a group of items. |
| BOGO | Applies a discount to one or more units of the items specified in the Reward Rules. |
| Transaction | Applies a discount amount or percentage to the transaction subtotal. |
| Coupon | Create a promotion that award customers with one or more coupon codes when the validation rules are met. The coupon codes can then be used to validate other. (e.g. Item or Quantity) promotions. |
| Custom | All options are available. Note: This promotion type should only be used after you have become comfortable working with the other types. |
Transfers
Retail Pro Prism now has a new Transfers module that enables you to create transfer slips to move merchandise from one store to another. Transfers are especially useful when one store has an abundance of inventory and another store has a shortage. By transferring the merchandise, retailers can avoid having to place a new order for more merchandise and manage their inventory smarter.
We’ve also made many other exciting improvements, including:
- Initialization and Communication Improvements
- COD/Charge
- Enhanced Accumulated Discounting
…and much more!
