Enter Y (Yes) to print the long item description on the invoice or N (No) to print the short item description. The long description wraps across multiple lines on the invoice. This is a required field.

Unit Quantity

Enter the number of units to invoice. Units billed through this screen do not update billing history tables with amounts or number of units billed.

Unit Price

The unit price assigned on the Item Linkage subtask of the Manage CLIN Information screen defaults in for units invoices by CLIN/item. For units invoiced by price catalog/item, the unit price defaults in from the Manage Price Catalogs screen. This unit price can be modified.

Total Unit Amount

This field displays the number of units billed multiplied by the unit price. It cannot be modified.

Disc %

Use this field to store volume or good customer discounts. Costpoint multiplies discount percentages entered in this field by the Total Unit Amount to arrive at a Disc Amount. This Disc Amount is then used to reduce the invoice amount. Therefore, the invoice amount and billed receivable recognized and posted are net of this discount.

Do not use this field to store prompt payment discounts because you do not know, when preparing an invoice, whether a customer will pay within the terms eligible for discounts. Prompt payment discounts are applied as part of the entry of Cash Receipts; however, they are typically applied against an invoice that has been recorded at the full invoice amount.

Disc Amount

This field stores the discount amount arrived at by multiplying the Disc % by the Total Unit Amount. It can be edited. If you edit this field, the Disc % field is modified to reflect the new percentage of the discount.
