    Hi bri_mur,

    You can go for the negative charge, but also overwrite the net amount on the line. In this case the unit price and discount fields are cleared. You could also consider a customization to have an additional field for a fixed line discount and adjust the calculation formula in x+++ logic.

    I need to apply a flat discount amount at line/item level and for this to reflect on the margin and total give at each individual Item. Using dummy items again seems messy and will not show a margin at individual item level when looking at any sales analysis for item profitability.

    I will have a look at the negative charge but I want something easily entered at user level

    Hi bri_mur, I see. Have you tried working with the (total) discount field available at the sales order header? As an alternative, you can setup a negative "charge" at the line level and/or make use of dummy items to include your discount without affecting your Prices. There are several options available and you need to test what suits you best. Ludwig

    Hi, just enter your 10 euro in the discount field without the %sign as this is a field that holds an absolute value. Best regards, Ludwig

    Why don't you want to use the Discount field for your discount? What problem do you have with it?

    This field will take the amount keyed of the price. I want to apply a flat 10 euro on the sales line

    Hi bri_mur, You should be able to identify and overwrite a customer discount in the "Discount" or "discount %" field of the sales order line. If you cannot identify those fields on the sales lines, please have a look at the line details - Price and Discount tab. If you also cannot identify the fields there you probably do not have to access to them and need to talk to your System Administrator. All the best, Ludwig
