Working with Volume Discount Pricing

This guide explains how to work with volume discount pricing. It is intended for general users.

Volume discounts give you the ability to structure pricing tiers for individual line item codes (LICs). 

Setting up Volume Discounts

  1. Navigate from Main Menu > Order Setup > Line Item Codes.
  2. Use the Quick Search bar to locate the desired LIC.
  3. At the LIC record's detail view, navigate to the Setup tab, then click Edit.
  4. In the Commissions and Rate Setup section, click the V button.
  5. Mark the Apply Volume Discount flag.
  6. Enter the Quantity Ranges and Discount Amounts.
    Note: The Volume Discount Setup (VDS) popup shows sample formats and provides a Tester for double-checking your pricing scheme while you build it.  The following example shows discount tiers based on the number of items purchased at one time: buy 1-5 items to get a 4% discount, 6-30 items to get a 5% discount, and so on.
  7. Click Save at the VDS popup and then again at the LIC record.

After you apply the VDS settings, the V button's background changes to green to indicate the discount scheme is active.

Removing a Volume Discount

  1. Use steps 1-4 above to open the Volume Discounts dialog.
  2. Clear the Apply Volume Discount flag.
  3. Click Save at the VDS popup and then again at the LIC record.

After you remove the VDS settings, the V button's background changes to white to indicate there is no active discount scheme.
