What are the new parameters?
In Credit and collections > Setup > Credit and collections parameters, there’s a new section called Credit. Here you’ll see parameters for Credit holds, Credit management checkpoint, Credit management statistics, and Credit limits. The parameters allow you to turn on/off certain fields and functions with Credit management. This is also where you can setup the timeframe for the statistic fields and default reason codes.
Credit holds
Allow edit of sales order value after order hold is released – If this is set to No, if the Sales Order is release from hold and then the Sales Order is edited (doesn’t matter if the value goes up or down), the system will put the Sales Order on hold again. If this is set to Yes, if the Sales Order is release from hold and then the Sales Order is edited, the system will not put the Sales Order on hold again.
Reason for canceled orders – When a Sales Orders is cancelled, this is the reason default coded that is assigned to the Sales Order.
Check customer credit group credit limit – For Customer credit groups to be used in the credit logic, set this field to Yes. If the credit logic is to ignore the Customer credit groups, set this field to No.
Check credit limit when payment terms are increased – If this is set to Yes, then with the customer’s payment terms are changed on the order, the credit rule will be triggered. . .and if the new payment terms has a different rank than the customer’s default payment terms then the system will do a credit check on the order. If this field is set to No, then the rule is ignored.
Check credit limit when a settlement discount is increased – If this is set to Yes, then with the customer’s Cash discount terms are changed on the order, the credit rule will be triggered. . .and if the new Cash discount term has a different rank than the customer’s default Cash discount terms then the system will do a credit check on the order. If this field is set to No, then the rule is ignored.
Reason for releasing modified orders – When a Sales Orders is modified, this is the default reason coded that is assigned to the Sales Order.
Ignore credit limit expired rule when expiration date is blank – If this is set to Yes, then, you can leave the Credit limit expiration date blank on the customer record and the process will ignore the field. If this field is No, then, you need to populate Credit limit expiration date on the customer record because if you don’t the blocking rules will assume that the credit limit has expired.
Remove blocked load lines – If you have a Sales Order is on a load, if that Sales Order goes on hold, if this field is set to Yes, the hold process will remove the Sales Order from the load. If this field is set to No, the Sales Order will remine in the load.
Reason to release automatically – When the process that auto-releases Sales Orders from hold runs, this is the reason coded that is assigned to the Sales Order. Note: The process that re-evaluates the customer’s credit rules and determines if the order can be auto released from hold is the Evaluate for Release process in All credit holds list and All credit holds due for review.
Automatically release – When the auto-release process runs, if a Sales Order is released, if you want to post whatever document put the Sales Order on hold, set this field to With posting. To only release the order and manually post the document, set this field to Without posting. Note: The process that re-evaluates the customer’s credit rules and determines if the order can be auto released from hold is the Evaluate for Release process in All credit holds list and All credit holds due for review.
For example, if this field is set to With posting, then, if the posting of the Packing Slip put the Sales Order on hold but in the meantime the customer has made a payment and their credit allows orders to process, when the auto-release process runs, the system will release the Sales Order from hold and post the Packing Slip.
Credit management checkpoint
Credit management checkpoints tell the system when to execute the credit check logic.
Based on the setup below, we’re telling the system to do a credit check when the Sales Order Confirmation is posted, when a Proforma Confirmation is created, when posting the Packing list, Release to warehouse, and when creating a Proforma Invoice. By population the Grace days we’re telling the system to add that number of days to wait before doing another credit check on that Sales Order.
In other words, we have 10 Grace days setup for the Confirmation, that means that once the Confirmation is posted we have 10 days to get the order picked, packed, shipped, invoiced, before the credit check will be triggered again. If we don’t have any Grace days the credit will be check at each point that we have a checkmark.
Credit management statistics
The Credit management statistics is where you enter the timeframes to be included in the statistical calculations.
Credit limits
Credit limit exchange rate type – Select the Exchange rate type that is to be used when converting currency. This field is the same as previous versions.
Allow manual editing of credit limits – If you want to be able to manually edit the customer’s credit limit on the customer record, set this field to Yes. If you want to require the user to only use Credit limit adjustments to change credit limits (meaning you cannot manually edit the credit limit on a customer), set this field to No. This is a new field.
Credit limit type – This tells the system if credit should be checked and if credit should be checked which documents should be included in the credit check calculation. This field is the same as previous versions.
· None – Do not check credit limits. You can override this option for a specific customer by selecting the Mandatory credit limit check box in the Customers form. If you do this, the credit limit is checked against the customer balance.
· Balance – The credit limit is checked against the customer balance.
· Balance + packing slip or product receipt – The credit limit is checked against the customer balance and deliveries.
· Balance+All – The credit limit is checked against the customer balance, deliveries, and open orders.
Check credit limit on sales order – Set this field to Yes, if the credit should be checked on Sales Orders. Set this field to No, if credit should not be checked on Sales Orders. This field is the same as previous versions.
Check credit limit on free text invoice – Set this field to Yes, if the credit should be checked on Free Text Invoices. Set this field to No, if credit should not be checked on Free Text Invoices. This field is the same as previous versions.
Message when exceeding credit limit – This tells the system what message to display if the customer’s credit has been exceeded. This field is the same as previous versions.
· Error – An error message is displayed, and the order cannot be processed.
· Warning – A warning message is displayed, but the process can continue.
