Markups and Discounts Update

This article will go over the recent Rentvine update regarding Discounts and Markups.

Discounts

  • If you want to have a vendor set with a default discount percentage, you can set this at the vendor contact details page. To do this, from the left navigation menu, go to contacts and click vendors. Click on a specific vendor to view their details. In the details box you can click the pencil icon to edit. There is a field in here for discount percent. The percentage entered here will automatically show on any bills where the vendor is selected as the payee.



  • You can now select three options, which are None, Percent, & Flat Amount



This will need to be set on every vendor contact individually, on all the vendors you would like to have a default discount amount.

  • You can also now add a minimum / maximum amount for a discount



    This means when creating a bill, a discount will automatically be a minimum of the amount entered, but will not go over the maximum amount

This is only available for the percentage markup type




Markups

  • You can add a default markup field on the property level now to have this amount automatically pull this when creating a bill.
  • Navigate to the property you would like to do this for first and click on Settings




  • Click the pencil icon under the Accounting Settings




  • Here you can add the markup amount so Rentvine pulls this information automatically on bills created. You can select three options, which are None, Percent, & Flat Amount




This will need to be set on every property individually to have a defaulted markup amount.


  • You can also now add a minimum / maximum amount for a markup



    This means when creating a bill, a markup will automatically be a minimum of the amount entered, but will not go over the maximum amount

This is only available for the percentage markup type



Bill Creation

  • When you now create a bill, selecting a property and the vendor, the markup and discount field will now automatically populate these fields entered on the property or vendor contact level.





Hovering over the ' i ' icon will provide more information on where this amount is being pulled from.
