RE: vendor code "DISCOUNT %" fractions

["Richards, Karen" <krichards@xxxxxxxxxx>]

John,
   I was able to type 1805 in our set up. That should translate to 18.5%.
Also, I am new at this, but our vendor percentages vary depending on the
publisher and I did not put them in the Vendor Set Up. So I wait until
keying in the invoice and system figures it out.
Hope this helps
