Discount can be used in a different way in Sage X3. For example on the basis of percent, amount, etc. In this blog, we will see the different set of values for a discount in Sage X3.<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/p>\n

Navigate to Setup > Sales > Price list > Structures User can see the different values for discount (Refer below screenshot).<\/p>\n

Different values for discount<\/strong><\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

These values are used to define whether the value is an amount or percentage.
When it is an amount, the entered amount in the transaction is applied to the document.
When it is a percentage, it can be combined with percentages previously defined, or applied
in series to these elements.
There are thus two choices in this case:\u00a0% combined, and\u00a0% series.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s see an example of the above values:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Amount:<\/strong> Let\u2019s say the values are set as \u2018Amount\u2019 for Discount 1 and Discount 2. Now, I have created an invoice document with gross price 100 and discount 1 as 5 and discount 2 as also 5 (refer below screenshot).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Discount\n
Discount as a amount<\/strong><\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As we can see in the above screenshot, amount $ 10 (5 from Discount 1 and 5 from Discount 2) is deducted from Gross price (100) and total amount after the discount is 90 $.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

% combined:<\/strong> Now let\u2019s say that the values are set as \u2018%combined\u2019 for Discount 1 and Discount 2. Now, I have created an invoice document with gross price 110 and discount 1 as 5% and discount 2 as also 5% (refer below screenshot).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Discount\n
Discount as %combined<\/strong><\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As we can see in the above screenshot, amount 11$ (5% from Discount 1 and 5% from Discount 2) is deducted from Gross price (110) and total amount after the discount is 99 $.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In %combined both discounts are applied on gross price. See the below calculation:<\/p>\n
