Adding a text or display field to POS and not touching the Chart of Accounts
would end up in a series of errors, COGS being off, wrong results and wrong
amount in the GL for the CASH. Technically speaking, doing it this way is
guaranteed to get you a wrong amount in the Cash report, GL and no way to
reconcile. Cash at hand will never be what is in the till according to SQL.

The term list price and sale price mean something. =

Normal sale will be for list price. =

Friends and nice looking ladies get a discount, seems only fair.

If you sell for less than the list price / amount on screen including VAT,
just change sales amount and refresh before posting. COGS will stay ok,
income will be real namely the discounted sale price, all is well.

Or create an article `DISCOUNT` with a price of minus one and a cost of
zero. Sell as many of those (even 12,56 will work) as needed.
Discount WILL show up on receipt (reminding the customer of your generous
personality) and also in CoA and in reports.

Seems better than hacking the source code methinks. =

If it ain =B4t broke, do not fix it.

Onderwerp: [SL] Pos invoice discount

I,ve been setting up sql-ledger pos for a friend. A lot of his sales are
cash =

sales (computer shop). He wanted to be able to give some customers a
discount =

but the way pos invoice is set up I couldn't see a way to do that. Anyway, =

the way I did it was to create a customer called "Cash Sale" and I put an =

extra box under discount so he can put in there whatever discount he wants
to =

apply and on the pos invoice it calculates the discount and it all works ok.

The problem is that it doesn't show up in the pos-invoice.txt when you print

the docket. What do I need to do to reflect the change I made in pos.pl to =

have it correspond with pos-nvoice.txt? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Evert
