Single item BOGO discount

Note: It is recommended to have a Paladin TSR help set up this feature.

This article includes the procedure for setting up a Buy One Get One (BOGO) discount when only a single item is involved.

1. In Paladin, from the main menu, select File > Setup.
2. Select the Rewards tab.
3. Select Ace Hardware from the Customer rewards program list.

Note: Make note of your Rewards setting (None, Rich Rewards, Do It Best Rewards, Repeat Rewards, True Value, Orgill FanBuilder), because you will change back to that setting in step 7 below.

4.  In the Ace Hardware pane, check Enable Ace Rewards.
5. Check Instant Savings Enabled.

Note: If Ace Rewards was already selected, but the Instant Savings Enable check box was not selected, this means that the client opted out of receiving Ace Instant Savings coupons. The client needs to contact Ace to confirm that Ace Instant Savings is not active for the client’s store so they do not receive the weekly Hotsheet from Ace.

6. Click Save.
7.  In the Rewards list, change the setting back to the one that you noted in step 3.
