Business Validation Error: The Discount Amount Can't be Greater than the Subtotal.
Reason:
This error occurs when posting an order to QuickBooks Online, where the discount amount exceeds the subtotal. QuickBooks Online does not allow the posting of invoices with a negative total.
Resolution:
Verify and Correct the Order on the Sales Channel:
Check Discount Amount: Identify why the discount amount is greater than the subtotal.
Fix Order: Correct the order details on your Sales Channel.
Re-Download Order: Once fixed, re-download the order into Webgility.
If the Order Cannot Be Corrected:
Move to Ignored Tab: Move the order to the "Ignored" tab in Webgility.
Create Manual Transaction: Manually create a transaction for this order in QuickBooks Online, ensuring the transaction amount is greater than zero.
Example:
Incorrect Order: An order with a subtotal of $50 and a discount of $60 will trigger this error.
Correction: Adjust the discount to be $50 or less, ensuring the total is not negative.
By following these steps, you can resolve the error and ensure that your transactions are accurately recorded in QuickBooks Online.
