Hi:

I'm testing the option 'Subtract Disc. in Purch. Inv.' and found that if I leave it blank, for the purchase invoice with line discount in it, will be posted to FA with 'before discount amount'.

this is strange, not sure what is the exact business logic and requirement for this behavior? thanks.

Regards,

Lanqing.

Hi, Maria:

Thanks for your reply.

One thing I wonder that, normally when we capitalize an asset, we use the amount that after discount as the asset cost, instead of the original amount before discount.

So not sure what kind business it is that use the 'before discount amount' as the asset cost.

Regards,

Lanqing.

Lanqing,

The field 'Subtract Disc. in Purchase Inv.', I believe, was added for those who purchase Fixed Assets and actually enter Discounts. I would say in the 23 years using NAV/BC, no one utilizes this as the Invoice is normally enter NET of the Discount on the Purchase Line and not shown separately.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Steve
