Calculate Group Discount

Explanation

This activity is used to manually calculate the order group discount, i.e. the order size discount based on the order’s total volume, total weight or the total net amount. Generally the reductions are calculated at the release of the customer order, i.e., when the order's status is raised to Released. If you add an order line after the release, a new group discount calculation must be made manually.

The order size discount is calculated based on the settings on the sales part and the discount rates defined in Sales part Discount Group.
