Add-On Sales

The POS Reminder box may be used to add comments about the inventory item that will pop up in POS when the specified sku is sold. The POS Reminder box is an ideal place to add ‘suggestive sale’ items associated with the sku.  This is an excellent guide for sales people, as it will remind them of those small ‘add-on’ items that will increase the total sale amount.

Example:  When an acoustic guitar is sold, you would like the sales person to recommend a bag to the customer.  You have three styles of bags - a higher priced, medium priced and lower priced.  You can add each of the skus for the bags to the add-on table for the sub category Acoustic Guitar.  This acts as a reminder to the sales person to up-sell a bag, and the bag the customer chooses can be quickly added to the sale.

The POS Reminder box is also a great place to add special instructions or other information that the sales person should relay to the customer regarding the item.

Note: The POS Reminder comments and table may be established by sub category in "Maintain Sub Categories", on the Add-On tab.  If this was done for the sub category of the sku being added, that information will automatically appear in the "POS Reminder" box.  You may make any changes that are necessary for this particular sku.  Changes made to the "POS Reminder" box for a specific sku will not affect the sub category.

Note: The POS Reminder comments and table may be modified in "SA Maintenance".

To add or change information on the add-on table, click the button.  The "POS Reminder Setup" box will open, as pictured below.  When you have completed making changes to the add-on table, don't forget to click the Save button to save your changes, and remove it from your screen.

Adding Notes

Type any reminder notes for sales people in the Reminder Notes box. 

Note: It is best to add the "suggestive sales" skus or non-inventory categories to the table as opposed to the "Reminder Notes"  box because if they are in the table, the sales person can quickly select the appropriate sku or category if the customer decides to purchase an additional item.  This cannot be done from the notes box.

Adding Skus

Enter Skus in the Sku box, or press the F6 button to display inventory in order to select the applicable skus.  Click the Add button to drop the sku to the Sku table below.   

Adding Non-Inventory Items

If you are adding a non-inventory item to the add-on table, leave the Sku blank and select the applicable category in the Category box and type the amount in the Cat Price box.  Click the Add button to drop the item to the Sku table below.   

Deleting Skus

To delete a sku from the Sku table, highlight the sku and click the Delete button.
