Loyalty Program

A Loyalty Program awards points from submitted sales and lets eligible Customers redeem those points on later Sales Invoices. Programs can use one tier or several tiers based on a Customer’s cumulative eligible spend.

Before you begin

Confirm:

• Eligible Customers, Customer Groups, and Territories.
• The Company currency and loyalty expense account.
• A Cost Center for redemption when required.
• A policy for earning, redemption value, expiry, returns, and tier upgrades.

Create a Loyalty Program

1. Open the Loyalty Program list and select Add Loyalty Program.
2. Enter the Program Name.
3. Select Single Tier or Multiple Tier.
4. Set From Date and To Date.
5. Restrict the Customer Group and Territory when required.
6. Enable Auto Opt In only when all eligible Customers should join automatically.
7. Add the tier rows.
8. Configure redemption and expiry.
9. Save.

Configure tiers

Field	What it means
Tier Name	Label assigned when the Customer reaches the threshold
Collection Factor	Eligible amount required to earn one point
Minimum Amount	Cumulative spend required for the tier
Auto Opt In	Enrolls all Customers that match the program conditions

Example: with a Collection Factor of $100, an eligible $1,000 invoice earns 10 points.

Minimum Amount is evaluated from cumulative eligible sales for the Customer, not only the current invoice.

Configure redemption

Set:

• Conversion Factor for the monetary value of one point.
• Expense Account used for the loyalty benefit.
• Cost Center where required.
• Expiry Duration in days.

Keep earning and redemption factors distinct. A Customer might spend $100 to earn one point while each redeemed point is worth $1.

Enroll a Customer

If Auto Opt In is disabled:

1. Open the Customer.
2. Select the Loyalty Program.
3. Save.

Earn points

Create and submit an eligible Sales Invoice. Bravo Hub ERP creates a Loyalty Point Entry linked to the Customer and invoice.

Open Loyalty Point Entry to audit earned and redeemed points. Returns and cancellations can affect the available balance, so use the ledger rather than a manually maintained total.

Redeem points

1. Create a Sales Invoice for the enrolled Customer.
2. Add the Items.
3. Open the Loyalty Points section.
4. Enable Redeem Loyalty Points.
5. Enter the number of points.
6. Confirm the Redemption Account and Cost Center.
7. Review the invoice total and submit.

The dot before an Item Code shows stock availability at a glance: green means in stock and red means out of stock.

Troubleshooting

Problem	What to check
No points are earned	Confirm enrollment, program dates, eligibility, submitted invoice, and tier factor
Redeem Loyalty Points is unavailable	Confirm that the Customer has a program and available points
The tier is unexpected	Review cumulative eligible spend and minimum thresholds
Points expired earlier than expected	Check Expiry Duration and the Loyalty Point Entry dates
Redemption accounting is incorrect	Review the program’s Expense Account and Cost Center
