Setting How Discounts are Calculated

In IRIS Financials Purchasing, discounts can be calculated on a percentage or value basis. In a majority of cases, percentage is the required method as most suppliers offer discounts as a percentage. The percentage method is set by default but can be changed as described in this topic.

The value discount option can only be applied to a purchasing document as a whole - Individual detail lines are not able to have a value discount applied.

  1. From the IRIS Purchasing Home page, select the Settings icon.
  2. The Purchase Settings panel is displayed consisting of various tabs used to apply relevant settings. The General tab is selected by default.
  3. In Discount mode, select either Percentage or Value.
  4. Select Save to save your changes.
