Customer Discounts: Calculation of Discounts for Multiple UOMs

If the Multiple Units of Measure feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form, particular items can be sold in different units of measure (UOMs). This may influence the calculation of discounts defined by quantity. You can specify which UOMs the system uses to calculate discounts. In the Apply Quantity Discounts To box on the Pricing tab of the Accounts Receivable Preferences (AR101000) form, you can select one of the following options:

• Document Line UOM: The system uses the document line's UOM and quantity for calculating the discount.
• Base UOM: The system converts the quantity of the ordered items in the document line's UOM to a quantity in the base UOM for the item; the discount is applied to this calculated base quantity.
