gift vouchers

[wesleythorne]

Hi, i want to be able to sell a customer a gift voucher which they can use on future orders or to give as a 'gift'.
Is this feature possable in business v7 and if not will it be in a future version and if so when.
thanks
wesley

Hi,

I'm afraid not. We don't do gift vouchers but coupons which basically allow a customer to enter a code that will trigger a discount, either on the total cost of the order or on a product basis.

Hi

I just added gift vouchers to my test site. Our vouchers have unique codes which I'm assuming can be used in the coupon field.

Hi Shelia

You could do this, but please remember a coupon is not a voucher.

The difference between the two are:

A Voucher is simply a form of payment, that you can only use once.
A coupon is a way of activating a discount.

Kind Regards

Just when you think you have it sussed out!!!

I didn't even consider how the coupon field is utilised. How or what triggers the discount or payment method off??
