Automatic Price Difference Discount

This option is available only in the Professional Package and Enterprise Package

Automatic Price Difference Discount is available under the Advanced Discount Module. To use this feature, the Advanced Discount Module must be enabled for the business.

Automatic Price Difference Discount is used when the cashier edits the selling price in POS and gives a lower price than the default selling price.

Instead of changing the product price directly, the system will automatically convert the price difference into a discount.

1. Enable the Feature

Go to: Business Settings → Sale

Enable this option: Enable Automatic Price Difference Discount Then save the business settings.

2. How It Works in POS

Example product:

Field Amount
Default Selling Price Rs 200.00
Cashier Entered Selling Price Rs 190.00
Price Difference Rs 10.00

The system automatically calculates: Default Selling Price - Entered Selling Price = Discount
Rs 200 - Rs 190 = Rs 10

So the invoice will still know the original price was Rs 200, but the customer received Rs 10 discount.

3. POS Step-by-Step

Step 1: Add Product to POS

Cashier adds the product to POS.

Example:
150g garlic mixture
Default price: Rs 200.00

Step 2: Click Edit Selling Price

Open the Edit Selling Price popup.

The popup shows:

Field Value
Default Selling Price Rs 200.00
Minimum Selling Price Rs 0.00
Selling Price Editable field
Step 3: Enter New Selling Price

Cashier enters a lower price.

Example: Selling Price = Rs 190.00

Step 4: System Calculates Discount Automatically

System shows: Automatic Price Difference Discount

Field Value
Discount Amount Rs 10.00
Discount Percentage 5.00%

Calculation:
Discount Amount = Rs 200 - Rs 190 = Rs 10
Discount % = Rs 10 / Rs 200 × 100 = 5%

Step 5: Save / Close Popup

After closing the popup, POS should update the product line.

Recommended display:

Product Qty Unit Price Discount Final Price
150g garlic mixture 1 Rs 200.00 Rs 10.00 Rs 190.00

4. Why This Feature Is Useful

Without this feature, staff may directly reduce the selling price. That makes reporting unclear.

With this feature:

Benefit Explanation
Better control Original selling price is preserved
Clear discount tracking Price reduction is recorded as discount
Sales reports become accurate Managers can see how much discount was given
Prevents hidden price changes Cashier cannot silently change product price
Useful for approvals Discount amount can be checked later

5. Important Business Rule

This feature should apply only when:

Entered Selling Price < Default Selling Price

Example:

Default Price Entered Price Result
200 190 Rs 10 discount
200 200 No discount
200 210 No discount, price increased
