Parameters - Discount Table
Menu Selection: Document - Parameters - Discount Table
Purpose
This document allows the user to establish and change discounts for debtor categories and product groups.
Prerequisites
Referential integrity is preserved, as all the necessary Categories & Product Groups must be created first, and then the Discount Table entries may be inserted in the database.
Context
The Discount Table document is used to administer the discount scheme used in Sales Order processing and other areas. The price number code, and discount percentage are automatically retrieved from the discount table by the Sales Order document VPL logic during data entry of a new or editing of an existing Sales Order. The appropriate discount is selected based upon the Customer Category and The Product Group.
