Discount Waterfall & Stacking Rules

Discount Waterfall & Stacking Rules — Discount waterfall and stacking rules govern how multiple discounts combine — partner, volume, promotional, negotiated — and in what order they apply. The calculation engine executes the waterfall, and quote-to-close analytics later exposes where realized price actually leaks.

Where it sits in the lifecycle

Discount Waterfall & Stacking Rules lives in the Configure & Quote phase of Win the Deal — the stage where you quote, negotiate, and close on governed pricing. In the corpus tool index this phase maps to the CPQcategory.
