Invoices Over the Customer's Credit Limit

When you are about to post an invoice that will put a customer account over its credit limit, Order Entry displays a warning message and the following customer information:

• Credit limit.

• Outstanding Accounts Receivable balance.

• Order amount.

• Last invoice amount and date.

• Last payment amount and date.

If you are using security, you or your supervisor must enter a user ID and password which are authorized to approve credit before you can continue invoicing.

If you are not authorized to override the credit limit, or if you want to put the order on hold for later invoicing, select On Hold. If the order is on hold, you can post the order but you cannot ship goods and produce an invoice for it until you remove the on-hold designation.
