General Customizing: Cash Discounts 

To be able to post cash discounts, you must define an account determination for cash discount taken and cash discount granted.

For cash discount taken, choose:

Financial Accounting ® Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable ® Business transactions ® Outgoing payments ® Outgoing payments Global Settings ® Define accounts for cash discounts taken

For cash discount granted, choose:

Financial Accounting ® Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable ® Business transactions ® Incoming payments ® Payments Receipt Global Settings ® Define accounts for cash discounts granted

Refer to the SAP Library and the IMG documentation for more details.

You may also want to use payment terms suitable for your business processes to trigger the automatic calculation of cash discount amounts. For this topic, see the SAP Library documentation.
