Setting up Discount Entitlement in Membership Packages

If you sell memberships at your business, you may want to offer member discounts on various products like food, retail, or other admission products. For example, you may offer 10% off all food and beverage products for your membership customers. Here's how to set that up:

1. First, you need to create a Discount Entitlement in the Membership Packages module, so that it would take 10% off from products under the food & beverages category. Click here to know more about Discount Entitlements.
2. Next, Assuming that you already have a membership package created, you will need to add this Discount Entitlement to that Yearly Membership Package settings. Click here to know more about setting up Membership Packages.
3. Now, go to Guest Management and sell this Membership Package to one of your customers. Click here to know more about how to sell memberships in Guest Management.
4. Once, the member has the Membership on their account, that member should be able to use the discount.
5. To test it out, sell a product under the Beverages category in the Employees Register and add the member's name to the transaction.
6. Finally, once you add the member's name to the transaction, it will automatically apply the discount to products under the Beverages category before you collect for the payment. It recognizes automatically that this customer has a membership that allows these products to be discounted.
   
   IMPORTANT NOTE: If you intend to use this function within the eCommerce module (webstore), please ensure that the membership is linked to the account owner in Guest Management. Since webstore access is restricted to the account owner's credentials, the discount entitlement will not apply correctly if the membership is associated with any other guest profiles under that account.
   
   It is also not recommended to use this function with a Punch Pass membership that includes a set number of uses. The system does not automatically deduct a use each time the pass is redeemed to book a play session through eCommerce. As a workaround, customers with a Punch Pass membership should walk in, allowing you to manually deduct a use in Guest Management. You will then need to complete the open play booking on their behalf through the Employees Register.
