Applying Discount for total of an Invoice, Sales Receipt

how do I apply discount for the total balance of the order? I applied 10% discount for a Sales Receipt, but seems like the 10% is only applied to the line item prior to the discount line item. Therefore the total due does not calculate correctly. 

I want to apply the specific discount amount to the entire purchase, not just one line item.

Please help.

Thank you,

The solution

One way that is done in the Sample Files is to create a Subtotal item.   You then put the subtotal item at the bottom of your invoice.   Then create a discount item and put it below the subtotal.

A subtotal item and a discount item already exist in the Sample Product company file.  Open that and try it in an invoice (hit previous to get to some data) to see how it works.

 

There may be another, better accounting-wise, way to do it but that's the way I know.
