Counter Menu -> Contracts / Reservations / Quotes / Miscellaneous Invoices -> 'Expanded Document Details' -> Discount % window -> Rate Discounts option -> Calculate Detail Discount

Back Office Menu -> Cycle Billing -> Bill a Single Contract -> 'Expanded Document Details' -> Discount % window -> Rate Discounts option -> Calculate Detail Discount

This pop-up Discount window can be accessed on a rental document to view the discount percent rates, including the standard Rental Discounts and any Special Rate Discounts, that apply to this rental transaction.

Any Time-Based Discounts that apply to this product on this document do not show as part of the discount percent or dollar value on the product document detail line, but can be accessed in the Line Item Discounts window.

The prompts are:

STANDARD DISCOUNT %

This rate reflects any rental discount given on the document header which includes the rental discount assigned to the customer in Customer Information, and any over-ride discount percent adjustment on the product detail line in the Discount % field.
It does not include any Time-Based Discounts.

Calculation Window:
A window is provided to help with this calculation when the operator knows and enters the Total Discount % to be taken and needs the system to calculate what the Standard Discount % would need to be.
The Rate Discount % value cannot be adjusted.

RATE DISCOUNT %

This discount rate reflects any 'Special Rate Discount' given to the product in Rate Discount for Products/Groups, for the Special Rate Code associated with the customer or with the division of the document.
Any 'Special Rate Discount' given on the product for this customer or division, cannot be removed or modified on the document, as it is controlled by Special Rate Codes.

TOTAL DISCOUNT %

This is the combination of the Standard and Rate discount percents, where the Standard discount is calculated on the product rate after the Special Rate Discount has been taken.

It is this Total Discount % that is reflected on the document detail.

Note: If there is a 'Special Rate Discount' given on the product for this customer or division, it cannot be removed on the document, and the total discount percent cannot be reduced to less that the 'Special Rate Discount' percent.
