Order Credit Hold Change
Use this form to change the Credit Hold status for a range of customers and subordinate customers by date range and by aging basis.
The utility also assigns the following values on the customer orders which have their Credit Hold field selected:
Credit Hold Date = System Date
Credit Hold User = The user placing the customer on credit hold
The length of time this utility takes to process the selected records depends on the number of selected customers, the number of active A/R posted transactions for those selected customers, the number of customer orders, and the number of sites at which the customer orders reside.
When the Credit Hold field on this utility is selected, the utility adds the net due amounts of all active A/R posted transactions with the type Invoice for a given customer, determining whether the number of days between the aging date and the invoice date or due date is greater than the Days Over Invoice Due Date. If the sum of the net due amounts is larger than the Aged Posted Balance Limit value for the given customer, then the utility places the appropriate customer orders on credit hold.
When Release is selected for the credit hold, the utility removes all of the selected customer orders from credit hold. However, the utility does not remove any customer orders from credit hold if the customer is on credit hold.
When you click
, the system displays a message asking to confirm the credit hold change, then shows the number of records processed.In a multi-site environment, if a customer's credit limit is exceeded and the shipping site is the originating site of the customer order, the order is placed on credit hold. However, if a customer's credit limit is exceeded and the shipping site is not the originating site of the customer order, a warning message displays, but the customer order is not placed on credit hold.
