Line Item Discount by Percentage for Quotes

Posted on by 57
It seems the default for discounting in quotes is fixed dollar amount versus percent discount... I really don't understand this as Microsoft is trying to compete with SF.com and the others who all allow percent discount by line by default. When we resell products, it is all based on discount percentages... not dollar amounts... I am not even sure what kind of business would work that way but certainly not integrators, VARS, and resellers. Worse... it doesn't seem there is an easy way to fix this. Any ideas?

    Hi Jason,

    which library do we need to add first before adding OnChange event?

    Thanks,

    Ayadh

    Here is an idea (it make need a little effort to make it fully work) - *Note this won't work with the editable product grid functionality

    On your line item records, create a new decimal field (allows 0 -100) for the line's discount percent.

    Add it to the form, make the existing Manual Discount field read-only but keep it on the form.

    Add some JavaScript on the OnChange event of the new Discount Percent field to figure discount amount automatically and place the result in the manual discount field. Once the record it saved the built in calculations should still work as expected.

    JavaScript would be similar to this:

    function DiscountPercent_OnChange() {
        var discPer = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_discountpercent").getValue();
    	if (discPer === null || discPer === undefined) {
    		Xrm.Page.getAttribute("manualdiscountamount").setValue(0);
    	}
    	else {
    		var manDisc = (Xrm.Page.getAttribute("priceperunit").getValue() * Xrm.Page.getAttribute("quantity").getValue()) *
    			(discPer / 100);
    		Xrm.Page.getAttribute("manualdiscountamount").setValue(manDisc);
    	}
    	Xrm.Page.getAttribute("manualdiscountamount").setSubmitMode("always");
    }
