Dale,

I am very impressed with your software. Usually freeware/shareware is very limited and there is always a catch with functionality.

Have you ever thought about writing a layby module. This allows your registered customers to gradually payoff their total sale over a specified time frame and the system tracks and monitors their payments and balance until completion.

With a VIP customers section, you can specify a discount level for these customers so when they show their registered VIP card, the POS will automatically pickup their associated discount level.

When Dale gets a chance to enhance customer info to do accounts...you would use that for laybys etc...

As for pricing levels, that would involve altering the stock table...which as I know firsthand from upgrading my own file structures in programs...isn't a pretty task...

Maybe not, If you did a setup like "All Customers with a Frequent Buyer card get ___% off their purchase or ___% off items in a certain category.

Just A Suggestion,

Well if a customer hands you their frequent buyer card - you could just as easily use the coupon/reduction option to deduct a percentage or amount.

Some frequent buyer programs give out points. For example, 1 Point for every dollar spent and when you get 200 points, you get a $15 gift certificate. This is why you might need to keep track of frequent buyer cards.
