Zero value cost price or sale price

Hi, how do I enter a 100% discount in a sales line? It will not allow me to have a $0.00 Line Amount value, it says / A value for this field is required/. Obviously I am missing a setting somewhere? Thanks.

    First, modify the unit price field rather than the line amount field. Line amount is usually calculated by the system and should not be edited by a user. 
     
    Second, are you referring to the red asterisk in the line amount field? And this asterisk says a value for this field is required? If so, you can still post the sales order even with this red asterisk. You can basically ignore it. 
     
    Third, to have a zero price you can either enter 0 in the unit price field, or leave the unit price as it is and enter a discount of 100%. Either option works.

    100% discount is a standard feature of BC, please check if you have exposed the field via personalization. The line discount % will auto become 100 if you put zero in the unit price field.

    Hello,
     
    Typically we will use the Line Discount or Invoice Discount.
    Standard BC do allows posting of $0 invoice if you are using $0 on unit price.
     
    The error message doesn't look like it is coming from standard BC. You can check where the error is coming from the view last known error page.
