Hi,

I have a strange requirement for the posting of Vendor Payment Journals, on the vendor settlement screen, Cash Discount tab I will introduce several cash discounts with several cash discount codes, each one will have its own cash discount amount. On vendor payment journal posting this should generate a ledger transaction per cash discount, the ledger for each cash discount is defined in a customized field.

There is a standard way to do something like this? If someone did something similar would be nice to hear about which Class should I extend and which strategies could be followed.

Thanks

Pedro

This is my first project in The Netherlands and is something that I would avoid, at least before going live. Today I told the consultant that this does not makes any sense, but that is not my decision.

Hi Pedro,

Good to hear that you found the solution even though this requirement sounds quite 'creative'.

Can you share additional information why this kind of cash discount posting is needed?

Many thanks and best regards,

Ludwig

I found the solution to my problem, an extension to CustVendSettle class, CoC over method postDiscTrans would allow me to balance the standard cash disc and distribute it as the customer wish. The distribution information is in our case found in VendTransCashDisc table (The Cash Disc tab in Open Vendor transactions on settlement for payment)
