The following describes how discounts can be specified for invoices added to eCounsel:

§ Importing LEDES 1998B or 1998BI invoices using E-mail eInvoicing (Smart Invoice E-mail task), the Corridor Website (Smart Invoice Web task), the eBillingHub® (Smart Invoice Web task), or manual import in eCounsel – positive/negative discount amounts must be specified in order for the amounts to be added to/subtracted from the invoice amount. (See Submitting Invoices with Discounts.)

§ Importing LEDES 2000 invoices using E-mail eInvoicing (Smart Invoice E-mail task), the Corridor Website (Smart Invoice Web task), the eBillingHub® (Smart Invoice Web task), or manual import in eCounsel – the discount amount is not retrieved from the Discount_Amount field, but is calculated from the difference between the Base_Amount and Total_Amount fields. If the difference is positive, the discount amount will be a positive number; if the difference is negative, the discount amount will be a negative number. (See Submitting Invoices with Discounts.)

§ Manually entering an invoice in eCounsel – positive/negative discount amounts must be specified in order for the amounts to be added to/subtracted from the invoice amount.

§ Manually entering an invoice into the Corridor Website – any discount amount entered as a positive number will be subtracted from the invoice amount as long as the total amount is less than the base amount. (See the Corridor Invoice Submission Guide for Vendors/Law Firms.)
