The following examples use price simulation for quotation headers and single line items.
Quotation header price simulation
If you create a quotation with the following lines:
10 units of item BR-12 (cost price per unit USD 9.52 and sales price per unit USD 15.32).
12 units of item BR-14 (cost price per unit USD 7.48 and sales price per unit USD 13.75).
The quotation lines are as follows:

((10*15.32) + (12*13.75)) |

If you run a price simulation and apply a 15% total discount for the entire quotation, or quotation header, the new totals of the quotation with the price simulation are as follows:

Single line item price simulation
If you create a quotation with the following lines:
10 units of item BR-12 (cost price per unit USD 9.52 and sales price per unit USD 15.32).
12 units of item BR-14 (cost price per unit USD 7.48 and sales price per unit USD 13.75).

If you run a price simulation and apply a 10% total discount to the BR-12 units, the new totals of the quotation with the single line item price simulation are as follows:

The price simulation only affects the line for which it is applied, reducing the total for that line.
