9 View Limits

Using this screen, a corporate customer can view the limits that have been set for the corporate party with respect to supply chain financing.

Limits are assigned in a hierarchical format to the various entities involved, such as, anchor party, product, program, spoke party, and so on. The main entity or the anchor party is the topmost entity of the hierarchy. It is also referred to as the parent entity. The entities that form the next level of the hierarchy are its child entities. Similarly, the parent-child hierarchy can continue further based on the limit-setting requirement.

A corporate user from the anchor party can view those limits that are assigned to their party ID, including the associated parties, linked programs, and products. A corporate user from the associated party (spoke) can only view the limits assigned to their party ID and to the linked programs.

User must have valid corporate login credentials.
