Managing Mix and Matches


Information

The Mix and match table contains entries that allow you to expand a package price, like 3/$6.00, across multiple SKUs. For example, if you want to sell a combination of pop and chips at 3/$6.00, you can assign a mix-and-match so that your customer can buy 1 orange pop, 1 grape pop, and a bag of chips and pay $6.00, versus the client having to buy 3 of each to get a special package price.

NOTE: The mix-and-match records don't contain or keep track of quantities, amounts, discounts or mix and match types. They are only used to link items to mix them and then match them to the price defined in the Price table.
