The variational principle of discrete mechanics, from which discrete motion equations of systems are deduced, is generalized to the case of including the time variational. The requirement for an invariant group transformation is defined to be the Lie symmetry and the criterion when the Noether conserved quantities may be obtained from Lie symmetries is also presented.

The Noether symmetry provides a discrete Noether identity and a conserved quantity of the system. The invariance of discrete motion equations under infinitesimal transformation groups is defined as the Lie symmetry, and the condition of obtaining the Noether conserved quantity from the Lie symmetry is also presented.
