If you select Price and Inventory in Inventory Synchronization tab, then the info will be taken from SCE.

You can set Minimum inventory and Maximum inventory for all the products in the feed.

Discount is used to assign unique pricing for each marketplace (for more info check the tutorial on wholesale level discounts). In case of Amazon you should check price option and product info to update prices on Amazon.
