Invoice Header - Edit - On Time Discounts

Use this option to view or edit the discount the debtor receives for paying their invoice on time or before. These details default from the Debtor master file if they have been setup (refer to "File - Debtor - Account"), but you can change them. If they have not been setup, you can enter an on-time discount for this invoice.

  1. Display the Invoice Header.

Refer to "Maintaining the Invoice Header (v2.7)" or "Maintaining the Invoice Header (v2.8)".

  1. Select EDIT | ON TIME DISCOUNTS.

Micronet displays the Get On Time Discount screen.

  1. Complete the following fields:

 

Field

Value

 

On Time Percentage

Micronet displays the percentage discount that applies to this debtor if their payment is received on time, as setup in the Debtor master file. You can change this percentage if required, or enter a discount to apply to this invoice only.

 

Invoice Terms

Micronet displays the terms (in days from invoice date) from which the prompt payment discount is calculated, as setup in the Debtor master file. You can change the number of days (e.g. to give a bigger discount for a shorter payment period). This may be different from the debtor's payment terms. You can also enter a number of days to apply to this invoice only.

 

Due Date

Micronet calculates the due date by adding the number of days you entered in the Invoice Terms field to today's date. You may change this date.

  1. Select the Accept button.

Micronet redisplays the Invoice Header.
