Sales Header - unused fields?

imurphy

I'm using Nav 5.0sp1.

In the Sales Header table there are two fields

Invoice Discount Calculation
Invoice Discount Value

which don't appear on my Order or Invoice cards. Anyone know what these are for?

- We're talking about HEADER lines and not the Sales Lines table.

I'm doing some calculations on pre-invoices and need to know if I have to take this into account. I would assume that yes I do need to, but when I went to test their behaviour I couldn't find them anywhere.

It could be because the discount calculation functions are unfinished so the code doesn't do anything with them.

It may also be that the local version I am using simply doesn't display them.

I should have also added that both fields have the 'editable' property set to No in the table design... which would imply:
- That they are filled in by an external process
- That they are not used.

Sorry about the mis-posting kriki - I posted from an already open window and didn't notice that the forum was tips and tricks rather than the usual forum.

On the Sales button of a customer you can go to Invoice discounts.
There you can define some discount based on Minimum invoice amount etc.

On a sales order you have a function : calculate invoice discount which will fill these 2 fields according to the setup.

Try it...probably in help you will find more on setup of invoice discount.


good luck
