Determine how the sales are calculated:

Calculate Total Sales by Dental Group - this option will look at the Dental Group which the customer is assigned to. It will then take the sum of the sales for the entire group and qualify the group for the discount. Each customer in the Dental Group will receive a credit based on the type of discount applied in the Edit Volume Discount Detail menu. Once the group hits the threshold for the discount, each customer will either receive a percentage based discount for the total of all invoices within the period. If the Flat Rate amount is chosen, all customers in the group will receive a discount for the Flat Rate defined.

Exclude Customers with any Past Due Balance - if selected, then this option will exclude customers with past due balance.

When Calculating Sales, Subtract: Credits, Remakes, Past Due Balance or Current Balance. If you decide to subtract credits, remakes, and past due balances from the total sales, check the respective checkboxes. You can subtract all, none, or any.

When Creating Invoices you can either Create Credit Adjustment or Create Credit Memo. Determine if you would like to create a credit memo which requires a product to be selected or simply create a credit adjustment. Please note that credit memos are always included in all sales and credit reports whereas credit adjustments are for accounting purposes and will never be included in the sales and credit reports.
