Operations Menu - Invoice - Recalculate Discount
Discount Matrices allow you to offer quantity discounts based on the value, quantity, weight or volume of each Item sold. If the Customer in an Invoice is one to whom you have assigned a Discount Matrix, a discount percentage representing a quantity discount will be placed automatically in the % field in each Invoice row whenever you specify an Item and Quantity. If there is a Discount Matrix applying to an Invoice, it will be shown on the
'Price List' card.
The 'Recalculate Discount' function will be useful in cases where the Discount Matrix is one that calculates quantity discounts based on Item Group quantities rather than Item quantities and you have used more than one Item belonging to the same Item Group in an Invoice. When you add a second Item from an Item Group to the Invoice, the discount for the first Item may be rendered incorrect because its calculation did not take the quantity of the second Item into account. Therefore, when the Invoice is complete, you should recalculate the discount of every Item. To do this, select 'Recalculate Discount' from the Operations menu. You can also use this function if you change the Discount Matrix record itself, to apply the changes you have made in the Discount Matrix to the Invoice.
