Creating a New Discount

1) Click +New.

2) Fill out the necessary details:

  • Label - what to call the discount

  • Ranking (lowest will be applied first) - when should the discount be applied especially if there are other discounts to be applied? See sample scenario below.

AMOUNT - 10,000

DISCOUNT A - Rank 1 ; 10%, DISCOUNT B - Rank 2, 5%

DISCOUNT C - Rank 1, 15% ; DISCOUNT D - Rank 2, 500 (fixed price)

1ST DISCOUNT FLOW

  • Starting amount = 10,000

  • Apply Discounts A and C. Since both are percentages, they can be added, which gives total of 25%

  • 10,000 * 25% = 2,500

  • Ending Amount = 7,500 (which is 10,000-2,500)

2ND DISCOUNT FLOW

  • Starting amount = 7,500

  • Compute for Discount B: 7,500 * 5% = 375

  • Since Discounts B (375) and D (500) have the same numerical quantity already, they can be added before subtracting to the Starting Amount

  • Ending Amount = 6,625 (which is 7,500 - [375 + 350])

  • Amount - either fixed amount or percentage (% sign should be appended)

  • Applies to - where the Discount should apply (Total, Tuition, Miscellaneous, or Laboratory)

  • Applies to first payment due date ONLY (checkbox) - should the Discount be fully applied on the first payment (both on full and installment payment schemes)?

3) Once done, don't forget to click Add Discount.
