⚙️ 1. Verify the Discount Setup
Before troubleshooting the POS terminal, confirm that:
- The discount or promo code is active and not expired. 
- The discount has been properly created and synced with your POS system. 
- The discount type (percentage, fixed amount, or product-specific) matches what’s being applied at checkout. 
- The discount visibility is enabled for POS use — some discounts may be set for online orders only. 
💡 Tip: Check your Discounts or Promotions settings in your Admin Dashboard to confirm POS eligibility.
🛒 2. Confirm Item & Cart Eligibility
Not all discounts apply to every item or combination of items. Double-check that:
- The item(s) scanned match the products or collections included in the discount. 
- The cart meets any minimum purchase requirements (e.g., “Spend $50 or more”). 
- The discount isn’t restricted to specific customers or customer groups. 
- Excluded items (e.g., sale or clearance items) aren’t blocking the discount from applying. 
💰 3. Check for Conflicting Discounts
Your POS may allow only one discount per transaction or per item. If another promotion or automatic discount is active:
- The system may automatically apply the highest-value discount. 
- Manual entry of a second discount could be rejected. 
⚠️ Remove any existing automatic discount first, then reapply the intended one.
🔐 4. Verify User Permissions
If you or your team can’t apply discounts at checkout:
- Make sure your user role has the correct permissions to apply manual discounts. 
- Check if the POS is in offline mode — some promotions may only work when connected to the main server or network. 
🔄 5. Sync or Refresh the POS System
If the discount was recently created or updated:
- Perform a manual sync or refresh your POS to pull the latest promotions. 
- Restart the POS application if needed. 
- Confirm your device is connected to the internet to ensure discount data is updated. 
🧹 6. Try a Manual Discount Entry
If the discount code still doesn’t apply automatically:
- Try manually entering the discount code at checkout (if permitted). 
- Double-check spelling, case sensitivity, and any special characters. 
🧾 7. Still Not Working?
If you’ve tried all steps above and the discount still won’t apply:
- Take note of: - The discount code name or ID 
- Item(s) in the transaction 
- POS terminal ID and timestamp 
 
- Contact the Support Team with this information for a deeper review.
