Hi Experts,
We wanted to understand better the behaviour of the Cash Discounts in SAP, for Greece Localization specifically.
We noticed it's calculating the discount by decreasing the tax amount in the document, instead of reducing the total by applying a discount when processing the related outgoing payment.
Providing some context, any Vendor which is set up with a payment term + cash discount ends up getting the discount in the tax amount, which seems to be a quite strange behaviour. See the screenshots below as reference.
AP Invoice - Unit Price is EUR 395.00, Tax applied is 24%, so we should have EUR 94.80 instead (395 * 0.24 = 94.80)
Cash Discount - It seems SAP is applying the discount by reducing the Tax amount, as EUR 91.96 is exactly 94.80 minus 3%
Is our understanding correct and it should only be applied when posting the outgoing payment if paid in advance as agreed, or, there are other scenarios where this could be different?
Please, any thoughts here are welcome. We couldn't find anything relevant in SAP Documentation, neither here in the Community.
Thanks in advance!
Hi, Felipe!
It seems to be a good workaround. Will try.
Thank you!

Hi Gisele,
This behavior is, at very least, weird. While you don't get any feedback here from an official SAP source saying it is a bug, you may try a workaround by stop setting cash discounts to payment terms and calculate the discount directly in the payment process (payment wizard / outgoing payments).
Good luck!
Felipe
