# Product Based Discounts

**PORTAL PRODUCT-BASED DISCOUNTS**

Product-based discounts can be created directly in or through the Discount Scheduler. Each method has different use cases and capabilities.

**Discount Rules & System Settings**

* By default, most new systems are configured not to combine multiple discounts on the same product.
* When multiple discounts exist, the system will automatically apply the better discount for the customer.
* If you would like to change how discount stacking works, please contact Barnet Support.

**Creating a Discount in Product Maintenance**

1. Go to \<Product Maintenance>.
2. Select the product you want to discount.
3. Open the ‘Discount’ tab.
