rebates on invoices
i really do not think it matters where it is printed on the page; that is just the French way of saying it...they don't actually necessarily mean it's printed at the bottom of the invoice, it's a metaphor!!
In other words, they are YEAR END rebates and rebates on invoices...In France,that is called pied de facture BUT you might get such a rebate and it is not even "printed" there...It means the AMOUNT OFF THE TOTAL PRICE...Because the pied de facture means that's where the PRICE IS. The total you have to pay!!
Ah French is tricky wicky...
by the way, remise is rebate NOT discount
--------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------
Now, don\'t get me wrong, it can be printed on the invoice but the meaning is: rebates on full priced items as opposed to other kinds of discounts, of which they can be many...

JLDSF: I am not saying that it isn\'t printed at the foot of invoice, I am saying that in an ANNUAL REPORT with FINANCIAL STATEMENTS what matters are the fact that these are rebates on amounts invoiced and NOT where they are printed on the page...It\'s a French accounting term ALSO

OR in a brochure where you are telling potential customers about your BUSINESS FIGURES, who cares where the printing is? It\'s about the REBATE FIGURES.
le contexte, franchement, EST TOUT, dans la traduction.....:)

: Could it be literal in some cases? I have a software job that reads "pas de possibiilité de remise pied de facture. Tout se fait au niveau de la ligne.

individual invoice total
In the text the distinction is made between "remises de pied de facture" and "remises de fin d'année". Therefore, from the various comments received, it seems clear that in the context of the brochure it is indeed irrelevant where on the invoice the discount is given--the point is that the discount is given on the individual invoice total rather than at the end of the year on the basis of the total of all invoices for the year. So I have selected this answer, but reformulated it to reflect this conclusion based on the various proposed answers, comments etc. Thanks to everyone!
