The priority is not defined according to the type of discount but Concurrency mode setup on the discount. I have a blog on this which explains how concurrency mode affects the Retail periodic discount.

Thank you, very useful excel sheet

I can conclude that:

- "Exclusive" has the highest priority if it is there Ax won't look for Best price or Compounded.

- On the other hand, Best price and Compounded has the same priority and AX will get the cheaper.

Ayham & Sumit,

I agree with the content shared on how to manage the discount priority and occurrence within AX through discount "Concurrency mode". I have used the same functionality in junction with an array of Affiliation & Affiliation price group to have a selection of discount applied at Retail POS & Call Center in AX7.

For taking it a step further have any of you tried working with "Pricing Priorities" for coming up with a more advance control over pricing engine in AX?

Let me know if you have any idea about the extent of its use, or if you can share a creative solution approach from your recent projects.

If we have mix & match and threshold discounts set up on the same set of items, which discount has the highest precedence? By default, does Mix & Match override all promotions? Or, is it all through the concurrency modes set up?

Most likely Mix and Match will be applied

Thanks for your reply.

Discount-1: Mix & Match (Best price)

Discount-2: Threshold discount (Exclusive)

Which discount will trigger?

Looks like should be the exclusive one, even if the % is lower.
