Default Re: Discount in Ck regester

If you're recording discounts, I don't think it's an income - it's a
reduction in expense. For the purposes of income statements, there is a
difference.

I think the correct way to record this would be:

Check $98
split
expense:stuff $100
expense:discounts -$2

Default Discount in Ck regester

Does this split transaction work:

$100 charged to an expense category -> +$100
$2 charged to an income category -> -$ 2

When you post to an income category you may not need
the '-' sign. Cal, the MVP for this newsgroup, might
know for sure.

Default Discount in Ck regester

In paying an invoice of $100 with a 2% discount how does
one record the paymnet and discount. I want to show tne
$100 as spent in the catagory and the discount as income.
The discount can be shown as a negative number in the check
breakdown but nowhere does the discount show up in the
accounting.
