Q: Error ‘Discount Deviates from authorized range’ when trying to save Marketing documents.
OPEN /CLOSE
A: This message occurs when the user has been set up with a discount maximum and the Marketing Documents discount amount is above that maximum.

This discount can be changed in:

Highlight the user you wish to change the maximum disount % for and enter the maximum amount of discount you want the user to be able to enter in customer master records or sales documents.

Make sure you click ‘update’ after entering the amount. If you enter 0, the user is not able to enter any amounts for which automatic rounding has been defined, because automatic rounding represents a discount.
