Applying and Editing Discounts on Contract Lines

You can apply, edit and delete discounts on contract line items that belong to draft contracts. If you want to edit discounts on an active contract you must create a change request.

Discounts are automatically included in values and totals of a contract on the enhanced Billing Contract Detail page. If using the Salesforce Billing Contract Detail page, you must calculate the total contract value manually after applying discounts. See Calculating Contract Values. When you apply or edit a discount on a contract line item, these fields are updated:

Note:

A contract line item with a positive Sales Price cannot be discounted to less than zero, and a contract line item with a negative Sales Price cannot be discounted to greater than zero. For example:
