Create a Discount

Click + New
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 the sample scenario below.
- Amount - either a 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)?

Ranking Sample Scenario:

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 a 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 from the Starting Amount
Ending Amount = 6,625 (which is 7,500 - [375 + 350])
