Possible payment discounts are calculated when a credit memo is posted. The payment discount on credit memos is calculated according to the same principles as payment discounts on invoices. Where a credit memo is applied to an invoice, the possible payment discount amount for the invoice will be reduced by the payment discount amount for the credit memo.
The Payment Terms code is the basis for the payment discount calculation.
