Frequently Asked Questions
Does Discount on MRP change the final invoice amount?
No. It only displays the MRP-based discount. The invoice amount depends on the price and discount entered during billing.
Does Discount on MRP affect GST calculation?
No. GST is calculated based on the taxable value in the invoice, not because the MRP discount is displayed.
Can I use Discount on MRP along with invoice discount?
Yes. If the billed price is lower than MRP, the MRP discount can be shown while the invoice discount is applied separately.
Will old invoices show Discount on MRP after enabling it?
No. It is safer to treat this as applicable to invoices created after the setting is enabled.
Why does the displayed discount look different from manual calculation?
The discount is calculated using the selling price before tax, so it may differ from calculations made using tax-inclusive price.
