How to display a discount or surcharge on a client invoice?
When it comes to client-related finances, the discounts and surcharges can be applied in two ways:
To a task
Smart projectsÂ
Classic projectsTo a receivable
Â
While creating a client invoice, you need to take into account the place where the discount/surcharge is applied. Otherwise, it won’t appear on the invoice.
For discounts/surcharges applied to tasks, click the Add one item for all tasks or Add an item for each task button.
For discounts/surcharges applied to receivables, click the Add an item for each task receivable button.
As a result, the invoice will show the discount or surcharge applied.
The name of the discount/surcharge will appear on the invoice only when the Add an item for each task option is selected and the Client invoice single-task item name expression includes the ${task.amountModifiersDescription}
tag. To check or change this expression, go to the Configuration menu → Templates → Expressions.
IMPORTANT!
If you use the Add an item for each task receivable option for a project where a discount or surcharge was applied to a task, the discount/surcharge won’t be taken into account in the invoice. However, if you use the Add one item for all tasks or Add an item for each task option for a project where the discount or surcharge was applied to a receivable, the discount/surcharge will be taken into account in the invoice despite its name not being displayed.
