  1. In our old system we gave a % discount if paid in 30 days. The invoice showed the reduced total & the pay by date. When we transitioned to Allmoxy we set these accounts up to have the discount taken off at the line item level with a price adjustment discount. We basically grandfathered in existing customers with these terms & trusted them to keep paying in 30 days. We have to manually monitor that this is actually happening. It has not been much of an issue. We don't offer this to new customers. @Ashley In answer to your question - Technically the discount should be calculated on the total order amount since it is all paid before the due date. But... In my opinion, requiring 50% down & then allowing X amount of days after delivery to pay is a hybrid form of COD. COD customers do not deserve a discount because they are an inconvenience. Now if you set up triggers to collect this payment & your customer is entering their own orders online then it may not be an inconvenience. I have over the years had COD customers argue with me about this because they are paying sooner than someone with terms & think they deserve it. We have a set of customers who don't have internet, so COD with this group is a lot of extra work for our office & truck drivers.
