Can you change the cash discount value on a payment journal?

This is a D365F&O question.  Can you change the cash discount value on a payment journal?

Example in Contoso Company 'USP2' When I create an invoice journal Accounts payable > Invoices > Invoice Journal. : And create a line and post it. (It shows the Cash discount and code)  I then go to my Vendor payment journal and create a payment for that invoice.  I can go and view the discounts and everything looks right.  Here starts my question.  I can go to Vendor payment journal lines and select Settle transactions , then select the transaction and view the Cash discounts.  I can change this value here or on the Settle transaction screen.  It changes the Amount in transaction.  I can even add a new line.  But when I return to my Payment journal it does not change the total on the line.  If I change it manually and post it, there is still an amount outstanding that is the sum of original amount - the new manually updated line value. 

So in short what I need to know is this even possible, to change the cash discount value when doing the payment.

    Hi Sophia.r,

    YES

    I think you can go to Accounts payable->Payments->Vendor payment journal to change the cash discount as you write.

    Hi Ludwig.

    Thank you for your prompt reply. The UseCashDisc was my problem

    I Was able to simulate it.  So I am creating the Payment journals in code, from a new form and functionality, but the client wants to be able to add additional discounts on this new form.

    So in my code I write the additional discounts by inserting new lines to VENDTRANSCASHDISC , changing the UseCashDisc field to Always in VendTransOpen.

    It creates my Payment journal successfully, but when I try to post this payment journal it gives an error " Voucher APPM-00000 Code for cash discount does not equal the cash disc amount"

    Any idea how to fix this error.  Any advice will be appreciated

    Hi Sophia.r,

    You can change the cash discount in the settlement as you write.

    When doing that and leaving the form with ok you have to be careful that you are actually not paying after that cash discount date so that Dynamics does not apply the cash discount.

    To enforce the discount to be taken you can select 'always' in the use cash discount box.

    Simply change it from the default value 'normal' to 'always'.

    That should work.

    Best regards

    Ludwig
