**Trade Discount**

Enter the gross amount and enter either the *discount rate (in decimal)* or the amount you want to apply.

## Summary

You may review the summary of your transactions and also check the account entries of your transactions in the ***Accounts Receivable*** section.

Since income for billings or services are recognized upon settlement of invoice, Oojeema books the sales to a *Sales Clearing* account and reverses this upon payment from the customer.
