Discount per individual product
To apply the discount to a single product: specify a product from the drop-down menu.


Discount by product category
To apply the discount to the product category: enter the product category code (this must be created by entering it in the master data of each individual product)


In the event that both a discount on the entire price list and a discount on the individual product are present, the discount for the individual product will be entered automatically when the order is completed.

It is possible to specify up to three successive discount percentages: the second percentage represents a discount on the price already discounted with the first percentage, and the third a discount applied to the price already discounted with the second. Example: if you associate a product X with a discount 1 of 10% and a discount 2 of 5%, starting from an initial price of 100 euro, the final discounted price will be 85.5 euro (the first discount reduces the price to 90 euro, on this, applying discount 2, you arrive at 85.5 euro). As an alternative to the three discounts, you can specify a net price to be applied directly to the product that will overwrite the base price.

Importing and exporting CSV or Excel files

Accessing the Private Area, it is possible to import CSV files. This format is supported by the most popular spreadsheets such as Microsoft Excel, OpenOffice or LibreOffice. Click on the version you own to download the example file, from which you can start to create your own database to import.

– Clients (Excel per WindowsExcel per Mac, OpenOffice)

– Products (Excel per Windows, Excel per Mac, OpenOffice)

– Discounts (Excel per Windows, Excel per Mac, OpenOffice)

– Venues (Excel per Windows, Excel per Mac, OpenOffice)

– Customised price lists (Excel per Windows, Excel per MacOpenOffice)

These imports can also be carried out from an Excel file, by means of Copy/Paste of the data contained in that file.
Once the data has been entered in the importer, it must be indicated whether the file contains a header row (like the one in the example files) and whether it is intended to remove the data that is not in the file, so as to eliminate the master records that are no longer used.
In any case, the records in the file will be updated with those being imported.

In the last step, it is necessary to associate the columns present in the CSV file with the fields that can be imported into the system. If there is no header row, as in the example files, it will be possible to associate these fields using the drop-down menus in each row.
It is possible that the system does not automatically recognise the file structure and therefore it is necessary to specify which ‘Column delimiter’ and which ‘String delimiter’ are used in that document. Try changing and pressing ‘Update Preview’ to check that the system correctly recognises the individual data to be imported.

Exporting data always takes place in CSV format, and in addition to the master data listed above for importing, it is also possible to export order data.
