15040 Calculate Discount On Unit Price

Top  Previous  Next

(From version 1.5.040 onwards.)

 

This option allows users to apply discount (by % and/or by value) directly on unit price, which means Subtotal = (unit price - discount) x quantity....  instead of discount calculated on total price, which means  Subtotal = (quantity x unit price) - discount ...  for individual item row in sales/purchase documents.

 

 

There are 2 ways to apply this function:

 

(1) Debtor/Creditor Maintenance...
 
for example, go to A/R > Debtor Maintenance > Others, check the checkbox of Calculate discount on unit price.
 
 
clip0169
 
with this setting, discount will be calculated on unit price in new Sales documents when this debtor is selected. Any documents saved prior to the setting will remain unchanged, unless they are edited and re-save again after the setting.
 

 

 

(2) Edit the setting at Edit menu of existing Sales/Purchase documents.
 
For example, highlight any of existing invoices, then click on Edit;
Before changing the setting the discount is RM 20.00 off total price (RM 1000.00):
 
 
  clip0170

 

 

Go to Edit > Calculate Discount on Unit Price,
 

 

  clip0171

 

 

And the discount amount will now change to RM 200.00 as the result of  RM 20.00 x 10 unit = RM 200.00
