purchase limits

Aug 21, 2007 3 Replies

Is there any way anybody can think of that i could limit the purhase of an item to 1 per customer ever? I know of the purchase limits feature - but not sure how capable it is!



I want to use this for a coupon i will be emailing - so that the customer can only use it once, and not print multiple copies!



Any suggestions greatly appreciated!


Philip, Looks like you can use limit purchases to limit the purchase to 1 item per customer, but this will only work for 1 year. If this is acceptable to you I'd say go for it. If your coupon expired before 1 year is up you could simply make this an inactive item then you need not worry about it.

If you are looking for something else we could certainly develop a custom solution for you so keep it in mind, but I think given your situation limit purchases should be just fine.

I thought it would do the trick ok - but i operate in an HQ environment, and i cant find any way of assigning the purchase limits to an item from within HQ.

Am i missing something?

Philip, Unfortunately, I know of no way to manage this at HQ. If you wanted this to work you'd have to do it at each store, unless one of my wise colleagues can come up with another way.
