Discount Pages

The Discounts tab provides information about discounts associated with Payment Terms.  The Discount Opportunities sub-tab displays projected discounts for invoices, if those invoices are paid by the discount due date. The Task Administrator uses this information to ensure invoices approval prior to the discount due date, or escalated to a higher level of approval.

If you do not have the Discount tab enabled in the Disburser module, contact Customer Support or the BRM for your agency to have Discount functionality enabled.

 

Viewing Discount Opportunities

The Discount Opportunities summary page displays information about the vendor, the invoice and PO numbers, the invoice amount, and the amount of the discount. The discount due date displays the date the agency should pay the invoice to take advantage of the discount.

The Routed To list box displays only those Disburser users with the same ALCs and who are associated with the same group as you.
