# My vendor provided a discount after I purchased the goods. How do I record this in Zoho Books?

If your vendor provides a discount on goods post purchase, you can record it in Zoho Books as vendor credits. Here’s how:

*   Go to the _Purchases_ module in the left sidebar and select **Vendor Credits**.
    
*   Click **\+ New** on the top right corner of the page to create a new vendor credit.
    
*   On the _New Vendor Credits_ page:
    
    *   Enter the required details.
    *   In the _Item Table_ section, enter the discount as a line item. You can provide a meaningful text such as Post purchase discount.
    *   Select the **Account** with which you want to associate the discount.
    *   Enter the discount provided in the **Rate** column.
    *   If the discount is taxable, select the appropriate **Tax**.

You can apply these vendor credits to future transactions with this vendor.
