Applying payment discount from AFAS when exporting transactions

Written by Jèsel Broekema

The information in this article applies to administrations connected with AFAS.

It is possible to apply the payment discount percentage that is configured in the creditor master data in AFAS to the transaction when it is exported to AFAS. To do this, the option “Automatically apply payment discount when exporting transactions” must be enabled. When this option is enabled, the payment discount percentage configured for the AFAS creditor will be applied to the transaction that is created in AFAS.

This setting can be found via Manage / Environment / Administrations / Click 'Edit' for the relevant administration and go to the AFAS tab.

The following fields will then be filled in AFAS:

  • Payment discount (%) --> the percentage is shown here

  • Payment discount days --> the days are shown here

  • Payment discount --> the amount is shown here

The field “Accounting package payment discount calculation method” has been added to the software account. This allows you to indicate whether the discount is calculated excl. or incl. VAT. By default this setting is set to excl. VAT.

Refer to this article from AFAS for more information about using payment discounts.

please note:

  • Download the latest version of the GetConnectors to use this functionality.

  • Do not use this functionality in combination with the additional module Payment discounts, to prevent discounts from being applied twice.
