Overview
The Fixed Price promotion feature enables you to define a fixed price for a product that you could offer to the customer in a sale transaction.
For example: “Buy one item and then Get an item at a Fixed Price”
In another example, you could offer a special price of say $5 for a bicycle helmet, which might represent a significant discount off the normal price for any customer that purchases a bicycle.
Fixed price promotions let you define promotions for the following scenarios:
1. Buy “X” product and get “Y” product at a fixed price.
2. Buy “N” quantity of “X” product at a fixed price.
3. Buy any “N” products from a product category or product group and get a fixed price product from a product category or product group.
