Using the Multi-Level Payment Discounts module

This article explains how Continia Banking integrates with the Multi-Level Payment Discount module in Continia Finance and what you need to set up to benefit from multi-level discounts during the payment suggestion process.

The multi-level payment discounts feature is part of Continia Finance and lets you define multiple discount tiers for a single invoice, such as 3% at 10 days, 2% at 20 days, and 1% at 30 days.

Continia Banking does not manage or configure these discount levels. Instead, when you create payment suggestions, Continia Banking sends a request to Continia Finance to check whether a ledger entry includes multi-level payment discounts. If multi-level discounts exist, Continia Finance returns the correct discount percentage based on the Discount Date field on the Payment Suggestion Request page. Continia Banking then applies this discount information to the payment line, which updates the displayed Amount Payable/Collectible.

Requirements

To use multi-level payment discounts in Continia Banking, you must meet the following requirements:

  • Continia Finance and the Multi-Level Payment Discount module are installed and activated.
  • On the Extended Financial Reports Setup page, Show Extended Data FactBox is enabled.
  • On the Banking Export Setup page, Advanced Payment Suggestion is enabled.

After you enable these settings, you can view multi-level discounts in the Extended Data FactBox when you open vendor or customer ledger entries.
