This section contains descriptions for configuring item combination restrictions.

The item combination restrictions allow you to restrict certain line combinations so they are not allowed within the same transaction.

Example Example

You can restrict certain tenders from applying various kinds of discounts.

In another case, if you do not want a transaction that uses a trade card as tender to be allowed to use a staff discount, you can configure an item combination restriction to restrict or reject the trade card tender. The cashier receives a tender not allowed message and selects another tender. When the customer prefers to use the trade card rather than obtain the discount, the cashier can void the transaction, reenter the amount, and then pay with an allowed tender.

End of the example.

Each item combination restriction definition is comprised of restriction item information, and restriction criteria. The restriction item information specifies the line item, such as discount, to reject if the restriction criteria are met. You can specify multiple lines of restriction criteria for each restriction item. Once defined, item combination restrictions are activated after they are linked to functions.
