How to Configure Markdown Settings in Purchase Orders?

In this tutorial, we will learn how to apply Markdown in Purchase Orders using the Markdown configuration options available in Logic ERP. This feature allows the system to automatically calculate discounted purchase rates based on predefined markdown percentages.


Objective of This Feature

  • Automatically apply markdown percentages during PO entry.

  • Calculate discounted purchase rates without manual intervention.

  • Standardize supplier and item group-wise purchasing rates.

  • Reduce pricing errors during purchase order creation.

  • Support flexible markdown configurations based on business requirements.


Access to Purchase Order Configuration

  • Open the Purchase Order Configuration window.

  • Navigate to the Other Settings section.

  • Locate the option labeled as:

"Markdown Option".

  • This dropdown contains multiple methods for applying markdown during Purchase Order creation.

  • By default, the option is set to: None

  • This means no markdown is applied automatically.


Option 1: Markdown % as Purchase TD in Company + Group Taxes

  • Select: Markdown % as Purchase TD in Company + Group Taxes

  • Save the configuration.

Create a New Purchase Order

  • Initiate a New Purchase Order.

  • Enter the Supplier and Item Details.

Result

The software automatically:

  • Picks the Markdown Percentage.

  • Calculates the discounted purchase rate.

  • Updates the Rate column accordingly.

Example

Assume:

  • Basic Rate = ₹1000

  • Purchase TD (Markdown %) is predefined.

The system applies the markdown percentage to the basic rate and automatically calculates the discounted purchase rate, which is then reflected in the Rate column.

  • Open Purchase Order Configuration.

  • Select:

Supplier + Company + Group Wise Markdown

  • Save the configuration.

Create a New Purchase Order

  • Initiate a New PO.

  • Select the Supplier.

Final Outcome

The Markdown Option in Purchase Order Configuration allows Logic ERP to automatically apply predefined markdown percentages and calculate discounted purchase rates. Depending on the selected configuration, markdown values can be derived from Company + Group Wise Taxes or from Supplier + Company + Group Wise Markdown Settings, ensuring accurate and standardized purchasing rates throughout the system.
