Discount Table Single Dialog Workspace

Use this workspace to create a discount table. The tab shows user information, and the sub-tab shows discount table lines. A discount table line shows the conditions that must be met for a customer to get the discount. It also shows the actual discount percentage.

Maconomy uses the discount table to automatically apply discounts to quote, sales order, and credit order lines in the Sales Orders module, and to invoice and credit memo lines in the Accounts Receivable module.

If an order or invoice line meets the conditions set out in a discount line, Maconomy always bases the discount on the discount table, regardless of whether the customer would get a greater price reduction from an item or customer discount agreement.

The discount table is useful if you want to work with a discount percentage for whole item groups and customer groups at the same time. You can also base the discount on order mode.

Maconomy transfers a discount as a line discount to the relevant item line in the Sales Orders or Accounts Receivable module. If an item line meets the conditions of more than one discount table line, Maconomy applies the highest discount rate. In addition to the line discount, you can give a quantity and/or invoice discount.

For auditing purposes, it is recommended that you print and file the discount table every time that you change it. To print the card, use Print … in the File menu.
