Percentage Allowances
All allowances expressed as a percentage (excluding Warehouse and Ullage
allowances) are treated as a percentage of List Price.
In other words the percentage is used to calculate a $Value based on the
List Price. The resulting $Value is then used as the allowance value.
At no time is the percentage used except to calculate the $Value as above.
This may lead to a situation where the calculated value is higher than expected
based on your Trading Terms. ie. using a Reducing Balance in Trading Terms.
If this is the case then you should manually calculate the $Value which
is required and enter this $Value as the allowance rather than a percentage.
