Payment is Due |
Choose one of the following payment terms from the list: C.O.D.: The balance of the transaction is due at the time the items are delivered. PREPAID: The balance of the transaction is due at the time the transaction occurs. IN A GIVEN No. OF DAYS: The payment due date and early payment discount date are based on a number of days since the transaction date. ON A DAY OF THE MONTH: The payment due date and early payment discount date are based on the month in which the transaction was recorded and the selections you make in the Discount Date and Balance Due Date fields. For example, if the transaction was recorded in April, the discount date is 10th (the first of the month) and the balance due date is EOM, a discount would apply if the balance was paid by 10 April and the entire balance would be due 30 April. No. OF DAYS AFTER EOM: The payment due date and early payment discount date are based on a number of days after the end of the month. DAY OF MONTH AFTER EOM: The payment due date and early payment discount date are based on the month after which the transaction was recorded and the selections you make in the Discount Date and Balance Due Date fields. For example, if the transaction was recorded in April, the discount date is 1st (the first day of the following month) and the balance due date is EOM, a discount would apply if the balance was paid by 1 May and the entire balance would be due 31 May. |
Discount Days/Date |
Enter the number of days from the transaction date for which the discount applies. For example, if the transaction date is 20 April and the number of discount days is 10, a discount would apply if the balance was paid on or before 30 April. If you selected On a Day of the Month or Day of Month after EOM in the Payment is Due field, select the day of the month for which the discount applies. If you select a day in the month that comes before the transaction date, the discount will apply until that day in the next month. For example, if the transaction date is 20 April and the discount date is 19, a discount would apply if the balance was paid on or before 19 May. |

Enter the number of days from the transaction date that the balance of the transaction is due.

If you selected On a Day of the Month or Day of Month after EOM in the Payment is Due field, select the day of the month the transaction is due.
