Using Aloha Configuration Center, configure a single comp to be used for cash discounting. You must also select ‘Allow subsequent comp/promo on check’ for all other comps to perform a cash discount on a check for which you have already applied a comp or promotion.

When you finish your comp configuration, associate the cash discount comp with the Cash tender.

To configure a cash discount comp:

• Select Maintenance > Payments > Comps.

• Click the New drop-down arrow, select Regular from the list, and click OK.

  

• Under the ‘Settings’ group bar on the Comp tab, type a name, such as ‘3% Cash Discount.’

• Select Active.

• Select Fixed percent from the ‘Method’ drop-down list.

• Type the amount of discount in ‘Percent off,’ such as 3.

  Tip: Cash discounts are usually from one to four percent.

• Configure the rest of the options at your discretion.

• Click Save and continue with the next procedure.

To configure all other comps to allow you to also apply a cash discount comp:

• While still in the Comps function, select an existing comp other than the one for cash discounting from the dropdown list.
• Select the Restrictions tab.
  
• Under the ‘Comp restrictions’ group bar, select Allow subsequent comp/promo on check.
• Click Save.
• Repeat this procedure for each comp that is not the one for cash discounting.
• Exit the Comps function.

To associate the cash discount comp with the Cash tender:

• Select Maintenance > Payments > Tenders.
• Select the Cash tender from the drop-down list.
  
• Under the ‘Settings’ group bar, select the comp used for cash discounting from the ‘Automatically applied comp’ drop-down list.
• Click Save.
