I just started using Quickbooks.  I can't believe that the basic feature of adding a line item discount is not available or that it requires a workaround to apply a discount to a specific line item.  This is ridiculous.  I did get five Quickbook points for reading an ariticle.  I would prefer Quickbooks spend it programming energy on implimenting a basic feature that has been in discussion for at least three years.

To be clear, you should be able to enter a product and apply a specific discount to that product without much effort.  This is a basic feature of any invoice system.
