2) Seas.Factor % Under Credit limit

Hi Ram,

1. Seasonal factor in %

Specifies a percentage tolerance limit up to which a customer's credit

limit may be temporarily extended or reduced.

Example

If you enter 5% in this field and select the <Minus field, a customer's

usual credit limit of 10,000 USD is extended by a further 500 USD.

Procedure

Enter a percentage. Remove the seasonal factor if it no longer applies.

2.u201CDeviation in %u201D: specifies a deviation factor for documents that have already been approved for credit. For example, you set the deviation factor at 10%. An order for 10 boxes of a material has a total value of 1,000 USD and is approved for credit. The customer then calls and wants to add additional boxes to the order. If this causes the deviation factor to exceed 10%, the system carries out another credit check.

3. OPEN ITEMS: the relation between open items (invoices which have been posted to Accounting but have not been paid yet) which are more than a certain number of days overdue and the customer balance may not exceed a certain percentage.

Regards,

Alex
