Invoice terms These terms on a new O/E order are the default terms for this customer and are used by O/E to calculate the due date for payments to be made. For Cash Sales use CASH (The shipped order is posted to the Bill To Customer as a Paid Invoice unless CASH or NONE). For automatic calculation of the due date posted to AR, use the following format for the terms: NET nn (nn = number of days) Example: NET 30 or NET 10 DAYS At ship time the due date is calculated from the ship date. NET nnTH (nn = day due on the NEXT month/yr after ship month) Examples: NET 5TH, NET 15th OCT 2%. (all after TH is ignored) For terms of NET 5TH with any ship date in Aug. 2004, the due date would be 09/05/04 This type of terms helps increase orders in the early part of each month, because of the longer credit period allowed. NET EOM (Due at the End of the NEXT month/yr after ship month) Example: NET EOM Oct (or whatever you want after EOM) CC (Credit Card - treated as NET 10 ) Info after the CC is ignored, but could document the CC used Example: CC VISA, or CC MasterCard ..8878 (put in last 4 digits if desired) Suggestion: store the Customer's Credit Card info in the Bill to Customer's comments. Note that these Comments are accessable on the Customer Master Window or this Invoice Master Window (at the bottom) COD - This is treated as NET 10 to allow for the receipt of the COD payment from the shipper, ie. . .UPS, USPS) For customers that are COD over the counter, use terms of CASH, and document the COD in the Via field of the invoice. The characters NET and COD and CC must be the first characters of the field, and may be upper, lower, or mixed case. The characters TH or EOM may be mixed case also. Additional characters after the significant ones are allowed.
