Pre-defined quantity limits can be defined together with the discount you want to grant.

For example, if your company standard is to give 1% discount for each 1000 sold then you would create a quantity limit code with the following matrix:

Quantity Discount
1000 1%
2000 2%
3000 3%
4000 4%
5000 5%

The Quantity limit codes can then be assigned to the following:

  • Sales pricing method
  • Customer contract
  • Sales price list
