Discount Codes

Discounts in AX

This chapter contains only AX Connector specific information related to the discount codes configuration. General information about the discount codes configuration can be found here.

If you select the fixed amount type you should enter amount including tax and amount excluding tax per currency. The appropriate amount is used for the discount depending on the customer's settings in Microsoft Dynamics AX:

• Set Amount incl. tax - when the Prices incl. sales tax option is enabled on the Customer form.
• Set Amount excl. tax - when the Prices incl. sales tax option is disabled on the Customer form.

 NOTE

If you use discounts and thus allow your customers to enter a discount code in the shopping cart to get a discount, then one more option should be enabled on the products in Microsoft Dynamics AX. When a discount code is entered in the shopping cart and it is valid, it will give a discount on the total order amount of the shopping cart.

To correctly apply the discount code to the total order amount and calculate it, in Microsoft Dynamics AX on the Released Product Details form, on the Sell FastTab, you should select the Total discount check box, otherwise the discount will not be applied.

The discount code is stored in the sales header table and accessible from the sales orders (sales quotations) forms under the E-Commerce tab.
The discount is calculated in the same way as the invoice discount and is added to the basic invoice discount amount.
