Charge Interest: Select this box to charge interest to customers using this profile and display these charges on dunning letters and statements.

Collectable: The percentage amount of this customer's account balance that you expect to collect regularly.

Days In Period: The daily interest rate is equal to the interest rate that you specify divided by the number of days that you enter for Days in Period. For example, if you want an interest rate of 1.3% per month, enter 1.3 in the Interest Rate field and 30 for the Days In Period field.

Discount Grace Days: The number of days after the discount term that this customer can take discounts. For example, if you enter 5, the system gives this customer an earned discount for up to 5 days after the discount expiration date.

EDI Location: The Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) location code for this address. When an EDI transaction is sent or received, this code identifies the address to use for the ship-to, bill-to, etc. information. For more information, refer to the Oracle EDI Gateway User's Guide.

Grouping Rule: Grouping rules are used with AutoInvoice. Define your grouping rules in the Grouping Rules window.

Letter Set: You define dunning letters in the Maintain Dunning Letters window, and you define dunning letter sets in the Maintain Dunning Letter Sets window. You cannot assign a dunning letter set to a profile class if the high-end value of the Days Past Due date range of its first dunning letter is less than the number of receipt grace days that you assign to this profile class.

The default is the value you entered for the Invoice Printing system option in the System Options window. The tax printing options include Itemize and Summarize, Itemize by Line, Summarize By Tax Code, Total Tax Only, and European Tax Format. If you have not entered a value in the System Options window and you do not specify one here, the system uses Total Tax Only as the default value when printing invoices.

Override Terms: Indicates whether you can enter payment terms that are different from the terms which default from your customer or transaction type during transaction entry.

Payment Terms: If you do not have a payment term assigned to the Bill-To site use, the payment term assigned to the customer or site profile defaults during transaction entry. If you do not assign payment terms to either your customer profile or site use, the payment terms assigned to the transaction type will default during transaction entry. You define payment terms in the Payment Terms window.

Receipt Grace Days: Receivables uses receipt grace days when calculating finance charges for statements and dunning letters. Receivables also uses the receipt grace days when it creates dunning letters for your customers. For example, if your customer has 5 receipt grace days and their oldest invoice is 4 days past due, Receivables does not select this invoice for dunning. However, if this customer has an invoice that is 7 days past due (still assuming that this customer has 5 receipt grace days) and another invoice that is 3 days past due, Receivables automatically selects both past due invoices for dunning. The system verifies that this value is less than the high end of the date range of the first dunning letter in the dunning letter set you have chosen for this customer. The system warns you if the number of receipt grace days is greater than this date.

Reference: The address reference for this address. If you do not enter a value here, Receivables uses the ID of the address as the default. If you import customers through Customer Interface, Receivables generates a unique system address reference for each address. You cannot change this value after you save this address.

Send Credit Balance: Indicates whether to send statements to this customer, even if they have a credit balance on their account.

Send Letters: Indicates whether to send dunning letters to customers of this profile class when they have invoices, debit memos and chargebacks that become past due
