Best discounts to be picked and applied to the order lines.

Posted on by HarshithaR

If multiple line discounts are defined through trade agreements, is there any way that system will automatically pick the best discount and apply it to the sales order line.

Currently system is combining the multiple line discounts and calculating the discount percentage and sales price.'

Example:

Line discount agreement 1: Item A To Customer 1 - Line discount at 42%
Line discount agreement 2 : Item A to Customer 1 - Line discount at 60%
If Item A is included in the sales order then system is showing the discount percentage as 102%.

Any suggestions please?

this depends on multiple settings.

First be aware there is an option at the trade agreement "find next". If this is set to yes, D365FO will seach for further discount lines and us this in addition to the first agreement line found. So what sense does it make sende setting up two discount". What should happen?

Second there are parameters at the AR parameters/prices page to determine how different discount type should be combined.

Thanks Andreas for responding,

In our scenario firstly we are providing the discount to the customers, Later if we get any add on promotional discounts from vendors we want that to be benefited apart to the customer as well, this is the place where second discount is coming into the picture.

Tried editing the existing discounts but the case is we have multiple combinations for discounts(item to vendor, vendor to group of items) hard to pick the existing and edit them. Because of "find next" enabled system is accumulating the discounts which is not apt solution to us.

For second parameter as mentioned that is working in a case if line and multi line discounts exist - our scenario is all are line discounts.

Upon any suggestions please post back.

Hy HarshithaR,

if you want to show the multiple discounts to the customer I think you need to do a modification.

Currently you can enter two discounts at the trade agrreement journal of type discount. This will be applied to the unit price. On Sales order it is only visible as the combined discount percentage.

May be this fullfills your requirement.

More options to find the best sales price are given within the Retail and Commerce price engine, which works quite in another way than "traditional" pricing. But it also does not have more options to show multiple discounts to the customer. But you could create different affiliations to model the sales prices with multiple discounts. Not sure whether this would be an option.
