## Start creating a discount
To start creating a discount, you click the **Add Discount button** below:
## 1. General Information
This section defines the **basic information** of your discount, like discount title, reason for discount, and discount value. To start defining your discount's information, you can configure the following details:
### a. Discount title
To create the discount, enter your discount title (under 20 characters) in the Discount Title field to tell the customer what the discount is for.
You can **activate a discount or deactivate** it by setting the **Discount Status** using the dropdown:
* **Active** - the discount is activated
* **Inactive** - the discount is deactivated

Note: If you set an end date for your discount, your discount will be automatically deactivated on its end date.
{% endhint %}
### b. Reason for discount
In the **Reason For Discount field,** you can enter your discount reason (under 150 characters) to tell the customer why they got a discount
{% hint style="warning" %}
The reason for the discount will be visible to the customer in the PDF, email, and invoice.
{% endhint %}
### c. Discount value
When creating a discount, you have to **choose how the discount will be calculated**. You can select between the two options: **Fixed amount** and **Percentage**.
* By using the **Discount Value** dropdown, you can choose between two options:
* Fixed amount
* Percentage
{% hint style="info" %}
Tips: Choose the **Fixed amount** option if you want to deduct a specific currency amount from the price. Choose the **Percentage** option if you want the discount to scale with the order total.
{% endhint %}
* Typing the **discount amount** based on the discount value option that you have selected
*Example 1: To create a $100 discount, select the **'Fixed Amount'** option and enter **'100'** in the **'Discount Amount'** field.*
*Example 2: To create a 10% discount, select the **'Percentage'** option and enter **'10'** in the **'Discount Amount'** field.*

### a. What rule will be applied?
You can choose whether to apply the discount using the **Line item discount** rule or the **Quote discount** rule
* **Line item discount:**
* If you want to apply a discount to a single product, you can choose the Line item discount option
* **Quote discount:**
* If your customer submits a quote containing multiple products, you can use the Quote discount rule to apply a discount to all products in the request, instead of creating individual discounts for each item
#### Line item discount
If you choose the Line item discount, you can select 2 options on which product you want to apply:

{% hint style="danger" %}
If you have many discounts on the same line item, the system will **prioritise the discounts** with the rule that applies to **'Specific products'** rather than **'All products'**
{% endhint %}
#### Quote discount
If you choose the Quote discount, you can select **3 options (All quotes, Quote amount, Quote quantity)** on which product you want to apply:
* All quotes
* Quote amount:
This means that the discount will be applied if **the subtotal of the submitted quote** is greater than or less than the specified input value
* For the quote amount, you will have two selections: **Greater than** and **Less than**
*Example: To apply a discount to a submitted quote with a quote amount greater than 10, enter '10' in the field next to the 'Greater than' option*
* Total quantity:
This means that the discount will be applied if **the total quantity of all products submitted in the quote** is greater than or less than the specified input value
* For the total quantity, you will have two selections: **Greater than** and **Less than**
*Example: To apply a discount to a submitted quote with a total quantity greater than 10, enter '10' in the field next to the 'Greater than' option*
### b. Who will be eligible to apply?
You can select what type of customers are eligible to receive the applied discount.
* All logged-in customers
* Other
* If you select **Other**, you will have 2 options, which are **Customer type** and **Customer tag**
