The workflow for Discounts function as-is. To apply an Employee Discount:


  1. The system will validate whether Access/Permission is given to the Employee trying to apply the Employee Discount.
    1. If the logged-in Employee currently has access, proceed directly to Step 3 to enter the Employee PIN.

  2. If the Employee does not have access, the 'Enter Approver PIN or Swipe Card' pop-up will appear, containing a number pad for entering the PIN of someone who has the permissions for approval.


  3. Once the PIN is verified, a similar pop-up will appear for providing the PIN of the Employee who will be granted the Discount.


  4. If the Employee PIN is valid, the selected Employee Discount can be applied.
    1. If not valid, an 'invalid message' notification will appear.




Discount Entry Example

  1. Employee Name - Alex (his assigned Role currently has the Employee Discount toggle enabled (selected).
  2. Employee Discount - 20% Off Event

  3. Since Alex is placing the order, and he is eligible for the 20% Off Event Discount:
    1. When Alex attempts to apply the Employee Discount, the Manager PIN pop-up will be bypassed and the system will go straight to the Employee PIN entry pop-up.
    2. Alex enters his PIN to continue applying the Discount.

  4. If Alex was restricted (due to the Role he's currently logged-in as not having the Employee Discount option enabled (selected):
    1. The Manager PIN pop-up would first appear for a Manager to enter their PIN to approve use of the Discount.
    2. Alex would then enter his PIN on the Employee PIN pop-up to apply the Discount.
