StoredValueInstrument

Entity Definition

Logical Name : StoredValueInstrument
Physical Name : DO_STRD_VL_INSTRMNT

A plastic card, paper document, key fob or other token that carries a credit balance that may be used to pay for (debit) customer purchases or in tender exchanges (converting the stored value into another tender media like cash, credit/debit card credit, send check, etc.). StoredValueInstruments are used like money but are paper or digital surrogates that are typically purchased and have value added to them in exchange for "real" money. As the name suggests, these entities retain value and may be used to make purchases. Typically stored value instruments may be added to or subtracted from through retail sales and return transactions. The attributes and definition for this entity are taken from POSLOG6 NOTE: StoredValueInstruments, as modeled in ARTS ODM V7.3 are NOT the same thing as COUPONS and VOUCHERS. This distinction is important. StoredValueInstruments function like tender. MANUFACTURER COUPONS are a form of discount. Now manufacturer discounts may be processed as a form of tender in a retail point of sale system. But they are NOT MONEY EQUIVALENTS. Manufacturer coupons are a kind of receivable that the retailer books with the intent of collecting from the manufactuer. This may be confusing but it makes sense. StoredValueInstruments are like money. Manufacturer coupons are like an IOU that retailers will collect on later. RETAILER COUPONS are discounts. They are debited as a point of sale markdown by the retailer. They do NOT represent a payment of any kind. They are NOT money surrogates. They are completely different from StoredValueInstruments VOUCHERS are a kind of deferred discount document. In ARTS, VOUCHERS are NOT money surrogates. They are treated as point of sale markdowns or discount expenses when processed at the point of sale. In ARTS ODM V7.3 a car wash token, free meal punch card, etc. are kinds of VOUCHERS - they represent stored discounts NOT stored money. Services like COINSTAR that aggregate customer change and issue documents they call "vouchers" are, in ARTS, a StoredValueInstrument. They take in real money and issue a document that may be used like money -- it is NOT a DISCOUNT.
