Applying discounts to invoices

BQE CORE is flexible regarding applying discounts to bill amounts before and after taxes. By default, it applies a discount after the taxes. 

Here are the steps to do so:

  1. From the main menu, open Billing > Invoices.
  2. Open the Invoices screen and Invoice Batch. Check CORE Help Center for details on creating invoices.
  3. Set the appropriate invoice filters and options before clicking Continue.
  4. On the Invoice Batch screen, open the More menu and select Show/Hide Columns > Discount.
  5. Enter either a dollar amount or a percentage (with % sign) in the Discount field, which reduces the Net Bill amount after taxes have been added. It does not reduce the tax amount of either services or expenses.
  6. As you move out of the field, the invoice updates to reflect the discount.
  7. Process the invoice as final and when the invoice is sent, the discount will be displayed on the invoice. Check CORE Help Center for details on creating batch invoices.

However, if you want to apply a discount to the bill amount before taxes, go to Settings > Billing & Invoices > General and select Apply discount to pre-tax amount.
