How does Limit Per Student work?
The Limit Per Student default is 1, for one Add to Cart/Purchase for the student.
Change the default to 2 or greater, this provides a quantity field allowing for up to the entered number (or selecting the toggle changes the number to Unlimited) Add to Cart/Purchases by one or more parents.
Example: Default changed to Limit Per Student of 5
Scenario 1: First parent tries to enter a quantity greater than the Limit per Student of 5,
the system changes quantity back to 5 and provides an explanation in red
- Quantity entered has exceeded the available quantity for this item.
Scenario 2: One parent, or combination of parents, have made three (3 of the 5) previous additions to cart/purchases,
next parent tries to enter a quantity of 3, but only 2 of the 5 are remaining for purchase.
Note: the system changes the quantity to whatever is available (below screen capture) and provides an explanation in red.
- Quantity entered has exceeded the available quantity for this item.
What happens when the Limit per Student of 5 are all added to cart/purchased?
Parent SCO Page: The item disappears from all parents attached to the student.
SchoolCash Register: The item is no longer available in the register for the student.
If school tries to Add Additional Item to the student, the system provides a message noting the student has already purchased the maximum available quantity of 5 for the item.
