Introduction
This topic introduces FireSale as a concept.
Overview
The FireSale functionality refers to placing products on sale "FireSale or Flash Sale". This normally refers to the activity where one or more given examples of a product are required to be discounted, whereas the bulk of the stock or inventory is maintained at the regular price. An example is where supermarket bakery items are usually reduced towards the end of the day or the end of their expiry date to encourage sales - whereas items that are in date for the same SKU are untouched.
Workflow
FireSale is initiated from the Mobile device and special barcode labels are printed directly from the device to a local BlueTooth label printer. The label is then placed on the given discounted item. When this item is scanned at the Point of Sale, its price is automatically reduced and set to the markdown or FireSale price.
