You have to give [setheader] a db=something parameter (even if you ultimately don't intend to use anything from the database). FWIW, I always add a negative line item for any discount, so that I can display the original cost plus the discount as a seperate line on the final calculation. The only trick here is to delete and readd that line item on each page, so someone doesn't order 6000 widgets to get the discount, then change it to 1 widget.
