Hi everyone, we appreciate the interest his idea has received. Introducing the ability to add a discount amount was highly requested by our community. We recognise for customers that discount by % this means you'll need to enter a % symbol where y ou wouldn't have done so before.
With quite a few items drawing our teams attention at present we want to be upfront that developing a default option for discounts isn't in the pipeline atm. This is something we'll keep reviewing and consider as a future improvement in this space. If there is any change or progress around this I'll let you know on the idea, here.

Does anyone else have the problem that since the update when you copy to a Purchase order from an invoice that it brings through the discount as well. It never used to do this. Frustrating as the discount we give to our clients is not related at all to the Purchase order for our suppliers. This has created more embarrassing errors with our suppliers. Wish Xero would just change it back to how it was before.

Yeah the new feature had made life very annoying for my business also for exactly the same reason. We been just typing in the discount normally without the % sign for years and now we have to remember to put the % sign in which is very dangerous and has caused quoting errors.
It would be interesting to know how many businesses using would prefer the numeric value as i would have thought most businesses use percentage discount.

Is xero also aware that when you copy to a purchase order from the invoice it carries through a discount which does not appear until you approve the Purchase Order? This has also caused us quite a few problems with our suppliers as they receive a PO that does not show the discount but the discount is applied so the total is calculated incorrectly so it is all very confusing.
We try really hard to remember to delete the discount on the PO but it is yet another step and frustrating. Would like to hear your thoughts - happy to walk you through it if you dont understand. New Invoicing we cannot copy from the invoice to a PO so not sure if the problem will persist with new invoicing.
