All of the payment methods enabled for the organization are available in the drop-down list, with the exception of Training Units (Distributed). When another payment method is selected, the appropriate fields for that payment method are displayed.

When purchasing additional training units, bundled pricing discounts do apply if available, but the user is restricted to purchasing only the number of training units to complete the sale.
