Discount type

Element type: Suggested

Enpoints/models used: LineItem

Your integration should provide a method for specifying a discount type on an invoice. This can be specified using the disc field in the LineItem model. Available discount types include:

0: None
1: Retail product - An amount is subtracted from the original price to arrive at a lower price.
2: Manufacturer Product - A discount of the total amount is reimbursed to either the retailer or the customer by the manufacturer.
3: Account Level - A stand-alone discount that isn’t applied against any service but instead as a stand-alone product.
4: Subsidized - A discount caused exclusively in telephone service where the telephone provider provides a service to a lifeline eligible customer. The discount will be on the local exchange service.
5: Goodwill - The total discount of a service that is recorded for accounting purposes but never billed to a customer.

Note

Using a Discount Type other than0 (None) may result in a $0.00 tax calculation because some jurisdictions don't allow tax refunds for other discount types.
You can also use discount types when doing Refunds or Adjustments of a particular Discount Type.
