Hi,
There is a very critical information which you failed to indicate in your long thread - which type of discount did you refer to? Is it cash discount (which is based upon the terms of payment) or a normal purchasing discount (for which a standard/customized condition type is defined and used)? The system behavior as well as your related configuration will clarify all of your inquiries.
Cheers,
HT

> I'm also understanding that you can configure the "discount" to be taken at time of "Goods Receipt" or "Invoice Posting" (whichever comes first) OR not until the "payment run" (if the payment date allows for the discount e.g. 2% 10, net 30 and baseline date is invoice date...if payment made within 10 days of invoice date the system would calculate the discount and pay invoice less the discount.) CAN SOMEONE PLEASE CONFIRM?

If we made the payment and it was not in time for discount to be taken...at time of payment run the "discount" would be booked as a "discount lost" and the account assignment would not be debited with the additional expense. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE CONFIRM THIS?
