How to configure a "BOGO" Shortcut

This document will show you how to configure a BOGO (or 2 for 1) discount

• This can be used when the happy hour special is "buy one drink and get a second drink for free"
• First name the button BOGO (or 2 for 1)
• An optional Description: Buy one item get a second one free
• You could optionally add a context filter to this shortcut that
  • only allows bartenders and servers to apply this discount
  • is only available in the bar zone
  • Is only available with the dine in order type

First Action: Duplicate Item

• On the terminal it will duplicate the selected item(s), or the last entered unsent item
• On the handheld it will ONLY duplicate the last entered item, that is still unsent (Green)
  • It will NOT duplicate an item that was previously sent

Second Action: Apply Discount

• On the terminal it will Apply the discount to the selected item(s), or the last entered unsent item,
  • It will apply check level discounts to the selected seat
• On the handheld it will ONLY apply item level discounts. It will not apply a check level discount
  • It will only apply the discount to an unsent item that is still green. It will not add it to a previously sent item
• Use the "Discount" dropdown to select which discount you'd like to apply to the item/seat
  • The discount will follow all the rules and settings applied when building the discount
• In this example I created a discount called BOGO. 
  • It is an item level discount
  • It is only available with the Alcohol Tax Type (so staff can't use it with food)
  • (You could also set an item level filter that is only available on drinks that you put in the filter)

See it in Action:

• I added the BOGO shortcut to my speed rail so that its easy to find
• Whatever item I rang in, it will duplicate it, and then apply a 100% to the second item, so the customer is only charged for 1 drink
