How Is Transaction Level Discount (i.e. Slab Discount) Handled In Rtlog File In Retail Sales Audit (resa)?

Answer»

If you have a scenario at Point Of Sale (POS) where in you give a discount of 100 at a Total Bill of 1000. This discount does not apply to any item but is at a Bill level.

Retail Merchandising System (RMS) does not supports bill/transaction level discounts, RTLOG file will not have a transaction-level discount (TDISC) record, so POS system should be sent item-level discount. But that does not mean ReSA only handles item-level discounts (IDISC). The slab discounts or bill/transaction level discounts are in fact apportioned amongst all the items in that bill in proportion to their prices & units sold.

If you have a scenario at POS where in you give a discount of 100 at a Total Bill of 1000. And it has two items priced differently then the transaction-level discount will be divided amongst these two items in accordance to their individual PRICE & sold units :-

Item Price Quantity Discount

Item A 400 1 40

Item B 100 6 60

ALSO for Slab discounts, there MAY be a coupon or a pamphlet to describe this discount based on slabs.

If there is a voucher or coupon involved then the Transaction records should have an additional TTEND record to DENOTE the discounts obtained by those coupons or VOUCHERS for a particular transaction.
