Add Payment Terms

To add a payment term, do the following instructions:

  1. Go to Setup and select Settings.

  2. Click on Payment Terms in the Account Receivables group of settings.

  3. Click on Add a new payment Term.

  4. Fill in the information on the payment term.

    • Name. The term's name (Net 30, Net 60, Due on Receipt, etc.).

    • Prepaid. Mark this option if the customer has to pay in advance.

    • Credit Period. Credit period length in days.

    • End of the month. Start payment term on the last day of the month of the invoice.

  5. Optional: Add a payment discount for invoices paid within a determined timeframe in percentage. This discount will be displayed on the Receive a Payment screen.

  6. Click on Save.

The payment terms are used to calculate the invoice due day in commission reports.

Example: How does the system calculate the period?

In this example, the credit period is 30 days and the End of the month setting is enabled:

Invoice Date: 08/14/2020

Commission Report Invoice Due Date column will be: 10/13/2020

The first day to start counting the 40 days in the credit period is the last day of the month of the invoice (August 31st).
