A customer changed its Payment Terms setup and has a Discount Date Calculation greater then the Due Date Calculation.
E.g. "10D" as the Due Date Calculation and "17D" as the Discount Date Calculation.
I personally think this is a very bad idea, I just wanted to know if anyone can tell me when a setup like this makes sense.
The customer says they know what they are doing and that they do it because if he pays after e.g. 11 days they still want to give him e.g. 2% Payment Discount. I would appreciate your opinion, or comments why I should or should not convince them to do this.
I discovered it since there detailed payment terms on the invoice gave that they got a xxx.xx EUR discount on a date later then the due date printed on the line just above it. Which looks pretty stupid, so they just asked me to hide the second line if this is the case instead of fixing it.

Bearing in mind that this is a NAV consultant & not a BPR consultant, this is an example of a cause of budgets overruns...
If the client understands the concept (in this case what is a Payment Discount) & still wants it their way, the questions I would ask would be:
1. Can the system handle?
2. Any legal/stability implications?
3. How much to charge?
