Items with a negative price

[me388]

Hi,

we will use a item for Giftcards redem.

Is it possibe to  enter a negative price maybe over api?

Example:

1 Item costs 100 EUR incl. 19% VAT so total is 100 EUR incl. VAT

now the customer use his gifcart with a amount of 50 EUR and 0% VAT

That means the Customer has to pay 50 EUR, but in this sell VAT is still the VAT of 100 EUR

 

1x Item  100 EUR (19%)

1x Giftcard Red - 50 EUR (0%)

=============

To Pay 50 EUR

There is no option for gift cards in Loyverse and discounts will not give you the total you are looking for at the end I believe 

Maybe you can use modifiers as they accept negative values, here is an example of how it looks like

Hi, thx for this idea.

I've created a new item called giftcard and a new modificator optionen -5 €.

I can reduce the positions amout with this option but i cant get lt zero.

Hello, 

You should be able to get it to zero, let us say the item's price is 5 and the modifier is -5 , when selling this item with the modifier, the price for it will become 0

I went through your chat with Fanny, at the moment it is not possible for items to have negative prices. Modifiers can have negative values but it is not possible to use them to make a price of an item below 0.

Hi, it would be great, if items with negative prices will work. It will solves many problems here in Germany. Maybe you can set some restrictions. If you allow negative prices only wenn stock counting is off for this item....

Hi, I played around with modifiers. It doesn’t work for me....  I I have to look for an other pos system.

You can have gift cards with barcodes on them. When you sell a gift card. You can create a “customer” using the gift card barcode. Then set thats customers points balance to suit the value of your gift card. When the customer next comes in, scan the gift card and redeem the value.
