Global Price Adjustments: Global Discounts & Surcharges

Global Price Adjustments allow applying a discount or surcharge to the entire financial document. Unlike line-level discounts, Global Price Adjustments affect the overall document total and are automatically reflected in the generated document.

Global Price Adjustments are available on the following objects:

  • Quote
  • Order
  • Invoice
  • Credit Note
  • Self-Billing Invoice

Two types of Global Price Adjustments are available:

  • Discount
  • Surcharge

For both types, the adjustment value can be entered using one of the following Value Types:

  • Percent
  • Amount

This provides flexibility for applying either percentage-based or fixed-value adjustments to the entire document.
