Using Discount Templates

Rather than entering discounts to meet the needs of each business situation, you can create a discount template to retrieve the proper discount codes.  Discount templates allow you to tie a discount code to a set of order characteristics.  When order characteristics match the templates' specifications, the discount code associated with the template is retrieved.

Defining Templates

Discount templates are defined on Reference File category G69 - Pricing/Discount Template Code.  Three different types of discount templates can be defined:  volume discount, header discount, and line discount.  Once established on Reference File category G69, you can use the Pricing/Discount Template Relationship Maintenance conversation to associate the template with a specific discount code and determine conditions that trigger when the discount is applied.  For more information about template processing, refer to the Pricing/Discount Templates key concept.
