If you have opted in to Aggregate Minimums, this article outlines how service minimums work.

How service minimums work building an order on CentsPOS.

Different Line Items, One Minimum!

The basics of Aggregate Minimums is fairly simple! This functionality is going to calculate the minimum to the total weight for all bags of the same service. With this, you have the ability to add different bags separately to the order and mark each one with their own modifiers and processing specifications while each bag’s individual weight counts to the global required minimum for that service. (Note: this is related to the minimum set on that service, not a ‘order minimum’)

Imagine a customer comes in with 3 bags and requests that they each have slight differences in how they are processed. Let’s say that for the service in this example “Wash & Fold - Premium” has a minimum rule of “First 10 lbs @ $20.00 and $1.50/lb after that” Since the three line items are all “Wash & Fold - Premium”, Cents looks at their total weight and applies the minimum across all 3 bags. See here:

In the example above, you can see that the first bag (9lbs) and 1lb of the second bag (1 of 8lbs) covered the 10lbs and applied the minimum accordingly. The additional 7lbs from the second bag and the entire weight of the 3rd bag (7lbs) were charged at the $1.50 per lb rate, as the minimum was already met.

If there are three bags that all reach the minimum requirement on their own, the minimum calculation will only appear on the bag with the largest weight. See the example below:

If each item in the Order Summary is a different service type, this rule does not apply. Only like services are aggregated into one minimum.
