Today we’re going to put the spotlight on a new visual indicator for customers who are over their credit limit.
Using the Customers Over Credit Limit Visual Indicator
When a customer calls in, you now have an easy way to quickly know whether or not the customer is over their credit limit. Two new checkboxes have been added to the Receivables Management Setup window to enable this functionality:
- Display Over Credit Icon
- Warn If Customer Over Credit
The first option enables a visual cue to be displayed if a customer is over their credit limit, as shown below.
The second option enables a popup window that warns that the customer is over their credit limit, requiring that a user click a Continue button to continue. These options are available for a wide number of windows in Microsoft Dynamics GP, including Customer Maintenance, Customer Inquiry, Sales Transaction Entry, Purchase Order Entry, Cash Receipts Entry, Invoice Entry, and many more.
