OpenERP Discount configuration for sale orders

Hi Everyone i have a concern regarding OpenERP Discount configuration. I’m using Bahmni version 0.89 And when I try to configure Discount heads in OpenERP, in the “Discount Account Head” field of the quotation or sale order, the account list is empty. I configured several accounts for categorising discount heads, but nothing is working. Can you help me find a solution ? Find below a screenshot of what i’m talking about.

Here are the accounts that i’ve created

hi @soopafly In Bahmni Pharmacy module to be able to give discounts, OpenERP expects an Account called “Discounts” to be present as Parent account.

To setup follow these steps: Goto Accounting > Accounts > Accounts Search for “Discounts”. If not present, create it -

Goto Accounting > Accounts > Accounts > Create
Enter Account Code e.g. 222 or Disc
Enter Account Name - Discounts
Choose Parent e.g. Overheads or Cost of Sales
Internal Type - View
Account Type - Expense View
Save

Once setup you need to make this “Discounts” account as the parent of Discount accounts that you have created e.g. “Needy Discount”.

Edit your Discount Accounts as follows:

  • Choose Parent - Discounts
  • Internal Type - Regular
  • Account Type - Expense
  • Save
