Discounts on POs

Since the beginning Purchasing as used misc AOC for discounts. Since ImageNow AP has issues with this when matching and actually I believe before ImageNow they did not like it. Without the misc AOC the PO price will not be correct. How do others deal with this issue? If not how would AP know to watch for the correct discount?

I this for discounts based on terms? Or a trade-in discount?

Trade-ins and any one time discounts.

For trade-ins our capital buyer will decrease the cost on the line item to match the dicounted cost and hopefully the invoice comes in with the correct cost. If not, a cost message comes to the buyer and she won't approve until the credit comes in. If the old equipment hasn't been sent back she gets with the department to expedite.

Is this how you still process capital item discounts? The vendor does not want the line item reduced by the discount but wants it shown separately on the PO. Any ideas? Thanks,

we had a vendor like this - I reactivated the old credit AOC - issued the PO then deleted the AOC and changed the line for AP.
