We are using AP Cash Discount functionality on a few of our vendors. However, we noticed that the discount is applied to the ENTIRE invoice. We want the discount applied only to the Product total and not to include Freight or Handling. With the current design, we are underpaying our vendors. Is there a configuration change that we can make or another solution to resolve this issue?
This is not achievable by design. There are options for Purchase orders, where you can define Line, Multiline discounts and Total discount, where multiline discounts would work in such a way that you receive a discount if you combine (purchase) different items and only total discount would apply for whole order.
Nevertheless, cash discount works for the entire invoice.
What you could do though, is to change the cash discount amount when settling the transaction, you said its only for certain vendors, so the accountants should be aware of that. In combination do that, you could set the discount to 100%, reason being, if I see, unlike in my example below that the cash discount is the same amount as the transaction itself, I would think that there is something wrong, thats the hint that the cash discount needs to be calculated manually.
Kind regards, Adis
