Customer discount settings

If you want to offer discounts to your customers (perhaps for a promotion or as part of a VIP program) you need to set up the required discounts.

Choose manual or automatic discounts

Discounts agreed for each customer can be applied automatically or manually.

Automatic – the discount is automatically applied when a line item is added to the invoice. The discount rate is based on the discount percentage set on the Options tab for the selected customer.

This option is only available if you have added products to IRIS Elements Cashbook with associated prices.

Manual – the discount rate (based on the discount percentage set on the Options tab for the selected customer) is only applied when you select the Apply Discount option when invoicing.

Choose which method you want to use:

  1. Go to Settings. (If you've switched to the new design, select your initials, then Account Settings.)

  2. From the Configuration Settings section, select Sales Invoice Options.

  3. From the Discounts tab, choose Manual or Automatic.
