Bill Disc% in the Bill Adjustment Grid

The bill adjustment grid of Bank Payments, Bank Receipts, Debit Notes and Credit Notes now has a Bill Disc% column, next to Bill TDS. It shows the discount percentage saved on the bill itself, the same figure you see in the Disc% column of the O/s Bills list, so you can see the bill's agreed discount while you adjust it.

Where to find it

  1. Open Bank Payments, Bank Receipts, Debit Note or Credit Note from the menu.
  2. Click Add, or open an existing entry with Edit or View.
  3. In the Adjustments grid, look at the Bill Disc% column, right after Bill TDS.

How to use it

  1. Select the party and enter the amount as usual.
  2. Open the O/s Bills list from the adjustment grid and select the bills to adjust.
  3. When the bills come into the grid, Bill Disc% is filled in automatically from each bill. You do not need to pick an item description first.
  4. If you want to give that discount in this entry, type it in the editable Disc% column as before. The Discount amount is worked out from Disc% exactly as it was earlier.
  5. When you open a saved entry with Edit or View, Bill Disc% is read again from the bills, so it always shows the bill's current value.

Notes

  • Bill Disc% is for reference only. It cannot be typed into, it is not saved with the entry and it does not change the discount, the adjusted amount or the accounting.
  • The editable Disc% and Discount columns work exactly as before.
  • Opening (previous year) bills and unadjusted notes do not carry a discount percentage, so the column stays blank for them, just like in the O/s Bills list.
  • If a bill type has no discount percentage on it, the column stays blank for that bill.
