Add a credit line or negative price to a booking so I can give an itinerary discount to a traveller

It would be helpful if we could add a credit line into the bookings, as a dollar value and also a percentage. When clients are in country often things are refunded due to weather etc. A -minus cost function would be helpful. I believe we could do it in the old TW .net.
Comments from Asimina:
Hello we offer to our clients a 2% savings off their trips (minus the cost of flights) and we don’t know how to correctly apply it in Tourwriter.
Note in the old Tourwriter we used to apply it on the itinerary and put in a negative value. The new Tourwriter does not offer this and after connecting with support this feature is not yet available.
So as an example: Trip Cost $1TT0,000 – (air $2,000 in which we don't add the 2% savings) = $8,000 x .02 (check savings) = $160 is the savings.
Thus trip cost $10,000 - $160 (2% check savings not including flights) = Final Trip Cost for the clients $9840 – Final Display Price. And from the $9840 we would then figure out the 25% deposit and their final payment.

As per the reply from Tourwriter support:
As you already tested, currently its not possible to enter negative prices in Tourwriter so this is going to be slightly tricky at the moment. Currently system allows you to only have negative markups only. I would suggest you to record this as a new feature request to have system allow negative prices for services like discounts.

Seasonz Thank you for sharing. I went to the suggested link and added a VOTE (now changed to 10 people wanting this) to show how important it is to add this feature :)

Yes please- we need the minus function also. We cannot always use the credit functions when we need to show a reduction or a discount for various reasons. We need to be able to show a negative number on the itinerary summary, not just the statement.
