AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
Based on the conversations, it seems that applying a discount at the line level in NetSuite can be a bit tricky, especially when it comes to calculating taxes. In the first thread, the user is trying to apply different percentage discounts on different line items on the Sales Order (SO) and wants the taxes to be calculated after the discounts are applied. However, by default, when a discount item is created in NetSuite, the discount is applied after the sales tax has been calculated and applied to the items. In the second thread, the user is trying to apply a sales discount directly to the item, instead of adding it as a line item on the order. This is because they want to determine their gross margin more accurately by attributing the discounts directly to a particular class and product. One of the users suggested using Non-Posting Discount Items, which might work for this scenario. However, it's important to note that discounts can affect taxes, so it's crucial to set up the tax on the discount item correctly. In the third thread, a user is asking if they can apply a header level discount that doesn't impact the taxable amount of each line item. In conclusion, applying discounts at the line level in NetSuite can be complex and requires careful consideration, especially when it comes to tax calculations. It's recommended to use Non-Posting Discount Items and ensure that the tax on the discount item is set up correctly. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
