Marketing features
|

==================
|
||||
|
||||
Use your POS system to engage with customers directly by sending them promotional offers via email
|
||||
or WhatsApp.
|
||||
|
||||
Storing contact details
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
|
||||
This feature requires your customer's contact details, either their email address or phone number.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Email addresses**: automatically collected and saved in POS orders when sending a receipt by
|
||||
email.
|
||||
- **Phone numbers**: to store phone numbers when sending receipts on WhatsApp or by SMS,
|
||||
|
||||
#. Go to :menuselection:`Configuration --> Settings` and scroll to the :guilabel:`Bills &
|
||||
Receipts` section;
|
||||
#. Activate the :guilabel:`WhatsApp Enabled` or :guilabel:`SMS Enabled` option(s).
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
If a customer’s contact information is missing, it will be automatically saved in POS orders when
|
||||
the receipt is sent via email, SMS, or WhatsApp.
|
||||
|
||||
.. tip::
|
||||
From a POS order form, navigate to the :guilabel:`Contact Info` category under the
|
||||
:guilabel:`Extra Info` tab, then click the email icon or whatsapp icon to send standalone
|
||||
marketing messages.

Configuration
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
You first need to enable the related server action to send WhatsApp marketing messages from your POS
|
||||
using the phone numbers collected from POS orders. To do so,
|
||||
|
||||
#. Go to the WhatsApp application;
|
||||
#. Create a new :ref:`WhatsApp template <WhatsApp/templates>`;
|
||||
#. Configure the fields:
|
||||
|
||||
- :guilabel:`Applies to` field set to :guilabel:`Point of Sale Orders`;
|
||||
- :guilabel:`Category` field to :guilabel:`Marketing`;
|
||||
- :guilabel:`Phone Field` to either :guilabel:`Mobile` or :guilabel:`Customer > Phone`.
|
||||
#. Click :guilabel:`Submit for Approval`;
|
||||
#. Once approved, click the :guilabel:`Allow Multi` button to create a server action in the POS
|
||||
orders list view.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
.. warning::
|
||||
If you modify the template's content, you must request for approval again, as its status returns
|
||||
to the :guilabel:`Draft` state.

||||

||||

||||

||||
#. Go to :menuselection:`Point of Sale --> Orders --> Orders`;
|
||||
#. Select the orders;
|
||||
#. Click :guilabel:`Actions`, then :guilabel:`WhatsApp Message` from the dropdown menu.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
:guilabel:`Template` field and hit :guilabel:`Send Message`.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
:alt: whatsapp composer view
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
- To use WhatsApp marketing in the Point of Sale, approved marketing templates must have the
|
||||
:guilabel:`Allow Multi` option enabled and :guilabel:`Point of Sale Orders` selected in the
|
||||
:guilabel:`Applies to` field.
|
||||
- If the server action is displayed without a properly configured template, an error message
|
||||
appears. Click :guilabel:`Configure Templates` and complete the :ref:`WhatsApp setup
|
||||
<pos_based_marketing/whatsapp_config>` steps.
