• Add value block - A catalogue may contain value blocks, depending on definitions made in the catalogue. If no value blocks are defined in the catalogue, Add value block will not be available.
  If the catalogue is defined to use value blocks, it is possible to add new value blocks, but in most cases users may only need to edit an existing value block.
  For information on value blocks, see the Value steps section below.

• Description - The description of the Block discount.
• Minimum amount pr. group - When the user clicks Minimum amount pr. group, a new window opens where the user can register a minimum amount for each exchange group.

The amount is multiplied by the cost index and is then checked against the purchase price.
• Complete block must be used - Left-click to tick this box if the user wishes for the Block discount to be valid only if the entire block is used in the quotation.

When the user chooses a Block discount containing price information, the group box Products appears in the Block calculation window. If the user chooses a value block, this group box changes to Value steps.

• Add - Click Add to add a new item to the block. In the Add to product window, users must enter the item code. If a code is entered that is not found in the catalogue, the Select product window will open, where the user can search for the correct code
