Same Letter for All Statements
If this check box is selected, all reminders have the same letter number. You must enter this number in the following field.

If this check box is cleared, the reminders for all the open invoices consist of a letter number that corresponds with the reminder status.

Letter Number

Restrict Highest Letter No.
If this check box is selected, reminders are sent up to a maximum letter number. You must define the maximum letter number in the Letter Number field. Invoices selected that require a higher letter number still have the maximum number.

If this check box is cleared, reminders are sent for each invoice using the letter number that corresponds with the invoice's reminder status.

Example

You have defined four different letter numbers for reminders. If your business partners do not pay, you only want them to receive the reminders with letter number one through three in the reminding procedure. To achieve this, you select three in the Letter Number field. Now your business partners can never receive printed reminders using letter number four.

Letter Number
If you have indicated, in the Restrict Highest Letter No. field that you want to restrict the highest letter number to be used for reminders, you must now enter the highest letter number.

Group All Lett. Under Highest
If this check box is selected, all reminders for a business partner receive the same letter number: the highest number. The highest number is the one that is used for the reminder of the invoice with the earliest due date.

Example

A business partner has several outstanding invoice amounts. You already sent a reminder for some of them. When a new set of reminders is sent, these invoices require a higher letter number than those for which you sent a first reminder. This means that you must send different reminders to one customer. However, you can indicate in the current field that all invoices of one customer must be combined under the highest letter number.
