For handling of free qty, scheme discount & lot Discount, as observed, there are three patterns of free qty/ schemes in purchase invoice, 


1. Free qty as earlier, e.g. 100+10 (still followed by most of the companies)


It is updated in the Batch table - remarks column and is visible at the time of purchase. You can set the layout of batch browser in sales invoice if required.


2. Scheme Discount, e.g. 9.09% (Now followed by many companies)


You can enter the scheme discount in Purchase Invoice. If this field is not editable, set Edit Scheme Discount Y for Purchase Invoice in System Parameters

It is updated in the Batch table - remarks column and is visible at the time of purchase. You can set the layout of batch browser in sales invoice if required.


3. Lot Discount, e.g. Total value of 10 units (Only a few companies)


You can enter a lot discount in Purchase Invoice. If this field is not editable, set Edit Lot Discount Y for Purchase Invoice in System Parameters.


In all the above cases, tax is not applicable to the free scheme provided in purchase or sales invoice under the GST regime.


Now a question arises what should be followed at the time of sales. You might be selling in the same invoice, goods of all companies, purchased in above three different ways and if you sell in three different ways accordingly, it will be cumbersome and confusing for the retailer. 


Effectively Scheme Discount and Lot Discount are just mathematical conversion of the free scheme, and the free scheme is the easiest way to understand for pharmaceuticals trade. So you should convert all three cases into a free scheme at the time of sales. 


Some of you are still confused about tax on free goods. For this Qty column heading should be just Qty and value should be printed as 10+1. To become double safe, you can print the value of free qty as Qty Discount using option provided on the print window.


Still, if you prefer to use scheme discount in the sales invoice, Qty, the discount column will print % of scheme discount. (In this case, free quantity is 0).


If you enter a value in lot discount column in sales invoice, it will be added to qty., Discount or print in qty. Discount column. (In this case scheme discount is 0)


You can simply try these options and check print off your invoice to understand it better.


You will have to use a format with id>10000. (10002 or 10008 or other) This is a better format.
