I don't know if I missed something, but discounts entered in the quantity
discount table for an item come up fine when we sell an item, but do not
come up in return mode. Is this normal behavior?

Do u recall the original transaction or just make a return? try recalling
the orginal transaction.

RMS doesn't return discounted items with the discounted prices coz it
doesn't know when the item was sold.

I am referring to a return without a recall. It seems to me that RMS would
not have to know when the item was sold, as it is not a 'sale' price, but a
discount set in the table. It just seems a little dangerous, because if the
cashier does not refer to the original receipt, the customer gets back more
than they paid. I would prefer the program take the safe route and assume
the quantity was all purchased at once.

I understand that the price would be correct in a 'recall' refund, but that
is usually not feasible because the item being returned is one of many on a
receipt (unless there is a way to do that!).

Is there a reason for this behavior that I am missing?

I agree, i've having issues with this as well.

At a minimum it should use the current quantity discount rules setup for
that item when the person performs the return.

Someone from Microsoft would be nice of you to chime in.

Dustin,
It sure seems like a major issue to me and I was very suprised by the lack
of response.
