Creating a Volume Discount Record
A volume discount record provides the top-level information about a volume discount, including its name, whether it is a simple or tiered volume discount, its start and end dates, and its currency. CAUTION: If you delete a volume discount record, all references to this discount become invalid. Any price list line items that used this discount will no longer have a volume discount.
