Whole order discounts

A whole order discount is a discount on the entire order. Whole order discounts are determined by the customer’s discount level order quantity or order amount. Each time a line item changes and affects the discount, it is recalculated. You can overwrite the calculated discount by entering an amount or percentage in the Discount field on the Extended view in Sales Order Entry.

Examples include offering 10% off orders of $100 or more, or offering a $15 discount on orders totaling at least $200. Additionally, you can indicate that you want the order to meet a specific gross margin amount or percentage. The gross margin amount is calculated or the percentage is applied against each line to determine the new total sale amount. You can also calculate a whole order discount by indicating a new total sale amount. The difference between the actual total sale and the new total sale is expensed as a whole order discount.

Whole order discounts are set up in PD Whole Order Discount Setup. They are assigned to customers in Customer Setup-Ordering by specifying an Order Discount level.
