Hi all,

When the customer has a payment term, where discount days are ie 10D and due date also is 10D and Dicount Grace Period is set to ie. 10D. the discount is not accepted if payment is after the due date but within the Grace period.

Set up of Payment discount grace days (GL Setup)

If Due date is changed - dicount will be accepted. I think Grace period should take priority.

    I'm sure that the document type is Payment :-)

    You must make sure that the document type in your cash receipts journal is "Payment" or discounts will not calculate.

    I have BC Customers using payment terms, payment discounts grace period as stated in my example, and their expirence is that it is not working.... and they wonder why?

    Need for code change MS?

    In your example the discount date and due date are the same, which is interesting. Does the payment tolerance work when during grace period for transaction where the discount date and due date are different? If you are using payment tolerances also, they can impact the payment discount as describe in the article below.

    Microsoft explains how payment discount grace and payment tolerances can impact discount.
