- Enter the amount of the discount in the Enter discount amount field. The field accepts positive numeric characters up to the full unit price.
- Click
to the right of the Enter discount amount field. This removes the discount and returns the price to the original amount.

If a coupon is used for a purchase by proxy transaction that includes a unit price discount, the coupon is applied after the unit price discount. The coupon does impact the unit price discount for a training item.
