How to show a discount on an invoice?

Here's how to show a discount on your Payyit Invoice:

1. On your invoice edit page (existing or new), enter a product for the full price. In this example, we'll use Banana Pudding as the first product.

2. Click the Add a line button.

3. On the new line, select the same product under Product (or product/service). In the Description field, indicate that this is a discount, coupon, or whatever other reduction in price you need to show. In this case, we stated that the customer receives a 20% discount.

4. Since you're giving one discount, set the Quantity as 1.

5. In the Price field, enter the discount amount as a negative number. In this case the amount discounted is -200.

• If you have a sales tax added to the original product, you will need to add a sales tax on the discount line as well. Peymynt will then calculate the negative tax amount for you.

6. Click Save when you're done creating your invoice.

If you want to see how much money has been given in discounts, this will be a debit on your income account. Go to the Reports section in your Payyit menu, then Account Transactions report and pull up your income account. See the example below where the $200 is shown as a debit.
