| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Service | The service from the price list |
| Min Quantity | Minimum quantity required to trigger the discount |
| Max Quantity | Maximum quantity for the tier (leave blank for unlimited) |
| Discount (%) | Percentage discount applied to the line |
When a service is added to a sample order, the application checks whether the quantity falls within a volume discount tier. If it does, the corresponding percentage discount is applied automatically to the line.
| Service | Min Quantity | Max Quantity | Discount |
|---|---|---|---|
| Soil pH Analysis | 10 | 49 | 5% |
| Soil pH Analysis | 50 | — | 10% |
An order with 25 units of Soil pH Analysis receives a 5% discount. An order with 60 units receives 10%.
Can volume discounts and price contracts apply at the same time?
Yes. The contract price replaces the catalog price first, and then the volume discount is applied on top of it.
What happens if quantity tiers overlap?
The application uses the first matching tier. To avoid ambiguity, ensure that the Min/Max ranges for the same service do not overlap.
Are volume discounts visible on the invoice?
The discount is reflected in the line total on both the order and the resulting invoice. The customer sees the discounted price, not the discount percentage.
