  Key Concepts: 
  Overall discount is a pricing procedure in SAP Customer Relationship Management (CRM) that allows customers to receive a discount on their total order amount. This discount is applied to the entire order, regardless of the number of items purchased. The overall discount is calculated based on the total order amount and can be set up as a percentage or a fixed amount. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To set up an overall discount in SAP CRM, you must first create a pricing procedure. This pricing procedure will contain the overall discount and any other discounts that you want to apply to the order. Once the pricing procedure is created, it can be assigned to the customer or customer group in the customer master data. When an order is placed, the overall discount will be applied automatically. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up an overall discount, it is important to consider how it will affect your margins. If you set up an overly generous discount, it could have a negative impact on your profits. It is also important to consider how the overall discount will interact with other discounts that you may have set up for specific items or customers.
