Revenue on job not correct due to discount

Problem

The revenue for a job was reported before discounts. The correct revenue for the job should be less after discounts.

Solution

The issue was due to the General Ledger (GL) account for the Discount being set as Expense instead of Income.

1. Go to Settings > Accounting > General Ledger Accounts.

2. On the General Ledger Accounts screen, find the General Ledger account for discounts and click Action > Edit.

3. On the Edit GL Account screen, go to the Type dropdown and select Income.

4. When finished, click Save.

5. Remove the discount task from the invoice associated with the job.

6. Add the discount task back to the invoice. This step ensures the changes are reflected correctly.

7. Check the job's revenue to confirm it now shows the correct amount.
