# How to Apply a Discount to a Fee, Other Charge or Disbursement Item
## In the Account page, you can apply discounts to individual line items, such as legal fees or specific charges. This allows for flexible billing by reducing the total amount owing via a dollar value or a percentage.
### Steps to Apply a Discount
1. **Locate the Line Item:** Navigate to the **Account** tab and find the specific line item you wish to discount (e.g., Mortgage Registration).
2. **Open the Discount Tool:** Click the **plus (+)** icon located next to the line item type (Fee, Disbursement, or Other Charge). This will trigger a pop-up window with two input fields.
3. **Choose Your Discount Method:**
- **By Dollar Amount ($):** Enter a specific dollar value in the left field to subtract that amount from the line item.
- **By Percentage (%):** Enter a percentage in the right field to reduce the line item by that proportion.
4. **Finalize:** The system will calculate the new total when the "Save" button is clicked. To remove a discount, simply click the **plus (+)** icon and clear the input fields and then click "Save".

### Important Rules & Tips
- **Maximum Limit:** The maximum discount allowed is **100%**.
- **Total Reduction:** Applying a 100% discount will "zero out" both the **line item amount** and the associated **GST**.
