Cannot change product unit price for a budget product (2014)

Symptoms

When changing the price of an existing product in a budget to a negative value, an error message occurs and the new price cannot be saved.

Error

The discount must be a number between -99,999,999.99 and 100.

 


Resolution

This can happen if a product has a predefined standard price > 0. In that case, entering a new negative price might lead to the calculation of a discount > 100 and thus this change is not possible. This is by design.

Instead, please add a new row, with a suitable product/standard price that can be negative. The existing row can either be deleted, or adjusted down to 0 (discount = 100).
