Use Case: % Discount and % Discount Off Base
You can apply a percentage discount on the base price where CPQ applies the percentage discount to the product's unit price after applying the auto-adjustments from price matrices, price rules, and promotions. If currency rounding after each step is enabled, CPQ rounds off the adjustment and applies the unit price before calculating the new net price.
