Customer Form // Accounting Tab
The next tab to be configured is the ACCOUNTING tab.
Note that fields with (*) are compulsory in the creation of a customer.
Customer Credit Management
The following tools help to manage the terms and conditions on the customers' outstanding balance ensuring your customers comply with your company's credit policy.
Terms(*): Credit term the client is allowed to, i.e. when the payment is due for invoices.
Credit Limit(*): The maximum outstanding balance a client is allowed in USD. Note that it must be greater than 0 (>0) for Billing clients, and must be 0 for Shipping clients.
Credit Extesion (Days): In case you want to give the customer some extra time in days to pay, you can use this field.
If your client has a Credit Limit and/or Credit Term issues, the customer will no longer appear on the PO page and will be flagged in the Search Purchase Order Page.
Customer's SRI Authorization Data
The following marked information is taken into the SRI XML file for the SRI authorization of invoices, guÃas, and credit/debit notes to the SRI system. Note that the XML file takes the information of the billing customer, therefore if some of the settings listed below are set incorrectly, the SRI authorization will be done incorrectly or will be blocked depending on each case(See SRI Cases).
RUC #: ID number of the customer. In case this is not set, the system generates a fictitious ID(9999999999999) for the SRI XML.
Payment Method: Set the payment method your customer is going to use for the receivables: CASH / NO FINANCIAL SYSTEM, ACH, DEBIT CARD, ELECTRONIC MONEY, CREDIT CARD, OTHER FINANCIAL SYSTEM, ENDORSEMENT OF TITLES. This data will be added to the SRI XML in the additional information section.
SRI Client Type(*): You can set your customer as Sociedad or Persona Natural. The system sets Sociedad as default.
Part Relacionada Exp(*): Yes if the customer is related to your company. No otherwise. The system sets No as default. According to the SRI, a customer is related to your company if the customer's sales are equal to or more than 50% of your total sales.
SRI Identification(*): Set the type of ID number(RUC #): RUC, Cedula, Passport, Identificación del Exterior, and Venta Consumidor Final. Note that the default is N/A, so, you need to set the correct option on the creation of the client.
