Coupons in Odoo18

• Concept of Coupon Programs: The video introduces coupons as a limited-time or specific-use marketing tool. Unlike general promotions, coupons require a unique code to be entered during the checkout process to unlock a reward.
• Enabling the Feature: To start, navigate to Sales > Configuration > Settings. Ensure that “Promotions, Loyalty & Gift Cards” is checked to enable the coupon functionality within the database.
• Creating a Coupon Program: In the Products > Discount & Loyalty menu, create a new record and set the “Program Type” to Coupons. This setup allows you to generate either a single code for many users or multiple unique codes for individual tracking.
• Defining Rules & Rewards: The narrator shows how to set conditions, such as a minimum purchase amount or specific product requirements, and defines the reward, such as a 10% discount or free shipping.
• Generating Coupon Codes: A key step shown is clicking the “Generate Coupons” button. This creates the actual codes that will be shared with customers via email or printed materials.
• Applying the Code in Sales: During a sales transaction, the video demonstrates clicking the Coupon Code button. Once the valid code is entered, the system instantly recalculates the order total to reflect the discount.
• Monitoring Usage: The video highlights the “Coupons” stat button at the top of the program page, which allows managers to see which codes have been used and which are still pending, providing valuable data on campaign success.
