Voucher Templates are created to allow users in RTP to create voucher numbers using the predetermined configuration set up on the Voucher Template. When a Voucher Template is created the RTP users will also create a Voucher Template ID.
Each voucher product in commerce needs to be configured with a unique RTP Voucher Template ID.
Vouchers are redeemed through the banner in commerce by validating the Voucher Template ID in RTP.
In the current version only Product Vouchers are supported.
Vouchers must be created in RTP using the Voucher Template with the ID that is configured to the commerce product in order to redeem successfully.
