We need to implement a discount percentage on entire PO’s and am currently unsure how this should be entered into AX. I would prefer not to have to add a % per line but I can if that is best. Is there a way to enter it on the PO as a whole?
We need it to be on each line item
The Total discount % didn’t appear to change anything when I populated it with 10%.

Hi Tery,
It's work for me now after I removed my Item posting for purchase discount side. Thanks your help. I will need verify the posting account.
Hi Terry,
I have remove the purchase discount GL Account under Item group. However, the result still the same. It didn't deduct the inventory cost. FYI. I'm used the Line percentage. It keep posted to discount GL and discount amount apply to vendor balance only. May I what else step I have miss out. You have any links for this step?
Hi Jasmine,
Check your posting profiles in the Inventory module. If you have a Purchase order -> Discount account defined for your items, AX will post the discount to another account, rather than to the inventory cost. Simply remove the discount account from your posting profile and test once more.
My company would like to apply discount on purchase and this also expected reduce the discount amount on the inventory cost. I have active all the item and vendor. I done performed the vendor line discount agreement. I used the line discount. After Invoice posting. It only affected the vendor invoice. There is no reduce inventory cost. May I know how's work. Please advice.
Hello Guy,
I apologize for such a late response. My user account was put on hold because it was hacked. While I was sorting out my account problem the person with the discount question resolved their issue.
Thank you very much for trying to help.
Hi Ray,
My company needs the same discount functionality as you described: discount applies to all lines and that the discount will be include as a reduction to the inventory value. In your January 28, 2016 response to Guy, you indicated that there was something missing. In your January 29th response you thanked Guy. What was the missing step(s)?
Thank you.
Hi Ray,
Glad you got it working.
If you know when the discount will expire when you create the journal, you can set the end date at this time. If you don't know when it will expire at the time you create the journal, then you will have to leave it open.
When the discount does expire, you can just delete it. Create a new price agreement journal with no lines. On the 'Lines' form, hit the 'Select' button. You use this to bring existing discounts (or prices) into the journal. When you get the discount you want to delete into the journal, use the 'Select all trade agreements for deletion' button. It will mark the line for deletion. When you post the journal, it will be deleted.
If you want to maintain a record that there once was a discount, you will have to create a new discount with an End date, and delete the original one. Steven came up with the solution for this; and I quote it when ever I can:
Use 'Select' to get the discount into the Journal. Use 'Copy and revise', to copy the discount AND add a 'To date'. Post the Journal.
You now have two discounts! One with an end date and one without.
To get rid of the discount without an end date, create a new journal and use 'Select' to bring in both discounts. Select the line with the 'To date' defined, and press Alt + F9 to remove it from the journal.
Press the "Select all trade agreements for deletion" button. Then post the journal.
This will delete the original discount, and leave the discount with an end date. The discount will stop being applied after the end date.
Thanks Guy,
That will do it so I will be able to have a line discount , I tried to delete or cancel this discount by anther journal with removing the discount but still having the discount.
So the question is how to delete to reverse it for that vendor if the discount is expired.
Hi Guy,
I have done the above steps as required the items but didn't work and didn't apply the discount on the items on the vendor trade agrements.
We have on the Activate price discount under price tab vendor and item checked only so I went to line discount tab and tick the all items and vendors.
I did post the the jornal for create price/discount as required as well.
