Set the Discount Tax Type

You can use all Order Management service flows out of the box, and you can also customize a flow and expand its functionality. This customization sets the discount tax type based on your store’s locale. Depending on the discount tax type, when a customer service representative discounts an amount off an order, the amount either does or doesn’t include the tax amount. You can set a discount tax type in the discount flow.
