Calculate Discounts on Receipts
I have a Walmart Discount applied to all my Walmart Receipts, which is what I need to use this app for the most and I would like to be able to somehow calculate that into the receipt when I split up the line items on the receipt. When I do the split, the items are listed at their full price and that throws an error about the totals not matching. The discount cuts the subtotal at the end of the receipt.
Perhaps letting me enter a negative number into an extra Split line item that I can label as Discounts would be the easiest route? UPDATE: This can be done, see my comment below...

I found a solution. I edit the total w/o discount, then I add negative number in Other Charges, then I Split the items and Include the a negative item for a new Discount (Expense Category) and that splits everything and calculates the discounts in the dashboard correctly.
I started using FireFox, then jumped to Chrome, but I also realized that I need to edit the main info and Save first, then reEdit and do the Spit. Saving the split to ignore the error works better in Chrome. FireFox didn't do it at first, but then did it and kept spinning, but on reload appears to have saved.
