If the total field is called Total and the total after discount is called DiscountedTotal, use the following formula in the Simple Field Notation option of the Calculate tab of the DiscountedTotal field:

Total * 0.5

or

Total * 0.75

or

Total * 0.9

so after being multiplied then needs to be subtracted from previous total as well so if Total is $100 and percent of funding is 75% then the calculation needs to in the Grand Total Due field needs to take $25 off and show $75.

It seems OK, but please don't post just screenshots without any explanations. Is it working now, or not?
