Looking at the thread, I wonder if people are trying to ask if there is a discount that can be applied not just toward an item or a term specified but that say if a client pay's the invoice within the terms set that QBO can have a switch on the Receive Payment screen to apply the terms specified to the whole invoice. Same situation when Paying bills.. that if the bill is paid within the discount range it can be applied to those bills being paid versus going into each invoice or bill and adding a discount item, calculating it based on the invoice/bill total, saving it correct the amount due. This would be handy. not just the ability to specify in the terms list or from the client or vendor payment tab which has no ability set the $ or % discount IF paid by Date or Terms. That's what I'd like to know. Is there a way to apply specified terms to an invoice or a bill if the conditions are met.
