Effect of Setting Credit Limits

The effect of setting credit limits is that during voucher entry (also invoice entry), the credit terms are filled up by the pre-set figures. If the voucher configuration (through F12: Configure) is set to disallow modifications of all fields during voucher entry, the cursor skips these fields and modification is not permitted. However, the configuration is set to permit modifications to all fields - alteration of the pre-filled fields is allowed.

The current balance and the credit limit of the party are displayed in the order and invoice entry forms, which is helpful to assess the amount acceptable.
