    Hi Josh, 

    "Discount Posting" field defines how the discounts will be posted in General Ledger.

    This link may help you understand the difference between each option: https://navisionary.com/?p=707

    Regarding the reports, a possible option is to export a Detail Trial Balance to check the entries for the discounts accounts.

    Hope this help you.

    Invoice discount is more of an accounting feature. Upon invoicing you provide a discount on an agreed rate. This means the other is a wholesale/retail style discount. So up front I know the price of the item/service is less than usual. The latter can be more flexible in setup as you can run promotions or put customers in dedicated groups for discount, similar to prices.

    Reporting wise I would setup an account schedule for the G/L accounts in the posting setup. This way you can drill down to the detail and navigate to invoices etc. Detailed trial balance is fine but it’s a static report so no drill down.
