Setup for Company Level:
-
Master Files Maintenance > #80-Company > MTM Reports tab: The "Discount to Use" must be selected. The most widely used is Group Discount.

- After this is accomplished, the parts need to be set up. In the Part Maintenance > Discounts & Markup tab, enter the selling price at each price break level.
- The Volume Level will default from the Company Maintenance setup, but you can use the "Chg Levels" button to override these levels.
- Enter the List Selling Price. Then, enter either the Volume Level or Percent Discount as you normally would.
