| # Line Discounts (tdpcg0200m200) Use this session to view or maintain discounts for sales and purchase transactions. A line discount can be linked to: A purchase contract price revision, which is always linked to a purchase contract line. A purchase order line. A request-for-quotation (RFQ) line. A sales contract line. A sales order line. A sales quotation line. An opportunity item line. Simulated prices, calculated in the Price Calculator (tdpcg0200m100) session. Note The number of discounts in this session, depends on the maximum number of discount levels entered in the Number of Discount Levels field of the Pricing Parameters (tdpcg0100m000) session. The discounts can be of type Net or Gross. If the Method field is set to Net, the discounts must be applied to the current net amount. If the Method field is set to Gross, the discounts are applied to the gross amount. Example Price = 100 Order quantity = 1 Number of discounts = 4
Discount Percentage | Discount Amount | Method
10 | - | Gross
- | 10 | Net
- | -10 | Net
20 | - | Net
    The net purchase price is calculated as follows:
    Discount 1: 100 - (100 * (10/100)) = 90
    Discount 2: 90 - 10                = 80
    Discount 3: 80 - (-10)             = 90
    Discount 4: 90 - (90 * (20/100))   = 72

    Net purchase/sales price = 72
