Overview

    1. Episode Type Discounts are defined by:
      1. Client Type
      2. Episode Type
      3.  Product Type
    2. Discounts are created using a Discount Method, Discount Parameter, and/or ('Markup') Multiplier.
      1. Discount Methods:
        1. Cost or Price Only:
          1. The Invoice Price is simply the Actual Sales Cost or Pricing Basis amount with no other product discounts applied.
        2. Cost or Price + Amount:
          1. The Discount Parameter is an Amount to be added to the Actual Sales Unit Cost or Pricing Basis.
        3. Cost or Price x Multiplier:
          1. The Actual Sales Unit Cost or Pricing Basis is multiplied by an active Markup Multiplier, or Multiplier entered as the Discount Parameter.
        4. Cost or Price + %:
          1. The Actual Sales Unit Cost or Pricing Basis is multiplied by 1 plus the Discount Parameter.
          2. The Discount Parameter is entered as a discount rate, which is a decimal number less than 1.
    3. Discount Credit Adjustments are posted using the Credit Adjustment Code and Reason assigned to the Episode Type Discount.
    4. When Discount Credit Adjustments are reversed, a Discount Debit Adjustment is posted using the Debit Adjustment Code and Reason assigned to the Episode Type Discount.
