Legacy Content

This Legacy Inform content requires revision and may not match your current GTX system. Please check back later for updated information.

Marlin GTX enables you to create and apply rules to control which products or services can be sold to particular customers.

The Sales Restrictions module enables you to enter rules regarding which products or services your store can or cannot sell to particular customers.

For example, the restriction in the example below prevents you from selling batteries to customers that have this restriction applied to them.

You could also set up the restriction so that batteries were the only product that you could sell to a customer.

If necessary, you could set up a particular customer in the system twice, once as a 30-day customer and again as a 90-day customer.

You could then apply different sales restrictions to each.

Note

This functionality requires system switches to be set.
Please contact Megabus if you would like further information on this module.
