The following applies only to contract lines using the discount rule.  When defining a quantity break discount for a contract line, the discount is a further discount off the nett contract price. A sales transaction can however only store a single discount amount. It can therefore only store a cumulative discount. Example:  Product A has a 20% contract discount. It also has a volume discount of 10%. If an order line qualifies for the volume discount then the cumulative discount is 28%, not 30%.  When viewing the pricing info for a line item, the volume discount is shown and if a discount has been used then the discount percentage is shown. If GP or fixed price volume price is used then only the quantity is shown.
