A coupon code can be used to get a discount. To use a coupon, you must first
set up a pricing rule. This rule determines the specific discount or offer
associated with the coupon. When you apply the coupon, it will follow the rules
you set up.

## Enabling Coupon Code

1. Go to `Setup > Settings`.
2. Navigate to the **Features** section.
3. Check the boxes for the **Enable Discount Accounting**,
   **Enable Pricing Rule**, and **Enable Coupon Code**.

> Note: **Discount Accounting** and **Pricing Rule** should be enabled to use **Coupon Codes**

Once that is done you will have to restart Frappe Books to see the Coupon Code
in the sidebar.

> Note: Coupon Code cannot be disabled once it has been enabled.
