In normal circumstances, when an Invoice is paid, a settlement discount is calculated when the Receipt is entered. This discount is determined by Hansa according to the Payment Terms of the Invoice and the Receipt Date. This function is provided for more individual circumstances. After an Invoice Number has been specified, change the Received Value to the figure paid (i.e. the Invoice Total less cash discount) and select this function. A new row will be created, containing the phrase "Cash Disc". As a default, the Received Value of this new row will be set to the figure that remains outstanding on the Invoice: this can be changed as appropriate. When the Nominal Ledger Transaction is created, the Cash Discount Account specified on card 1 of the Account Usage S/L setting will be debited.
