So sales invoice discount functionality has been changing in latest versions of NAV and BC.
It all basically starts with the SalesSetup."Calc. Inv. Discount" field
If it's marked, the invoice disc will be automatically calculated and applied, and if not, the user will have to manually use the button in the Sales Order form, for it to get applied. The user may not remember to use the button.
I don't much understand the idea behind this design, as it's very common for the company to apply a discount by default, but sometimes they want to remove it or change it for particular cases. In my opinion, this functionality must allow more flexibility, so the company can decide the discount policy, and weather to allow user's to mody them or not.
