Thread: Gazza - Minor glitch in invoice

  1. #1

    Default Gazza - Minor glitch in invoice

    I've just invoiced a buyer for 2 magazines
    Invoice No 89880

    As I always give the option for both 1st & 2nd class postage, I use a % discount to get it as close to right as is possible, as a fixed amount doesn't work.

    Although the invoice total is correct, & the invoice percentage is shown correctly as 29%, next to that shows the discount in money & that shows the wrong amount & doesn't alter when postage options are.

    The second figure is correct. 29% of 270 is 78.3

    Normal convention is that if the figure after the decimal point is less than .5 then you round down; equal to or greater than .5 then you round up.

    I totally agree, that is how I learned it.

    Yes but £5.45 minus £4.66 is 79p,
    so for it to be correct the Invoice total should have been £4.67
