Reviewing Credit Information

When you enter an order, you can verify the accounts receivable and aging balances for the sold-to address. You can use this information to assist the customer on the current order.

You access the Credit Check program (P42050) to review information about a customer's account and credit status. You can compare the customer's total accounts receivable and open orders to the customer's current credit limit that is assigned in the Customer Master by Line of Business table (F03012) to determine whether the credit limit has been exceeded.

Using the Credit Check program, you can access:

• Accounts receivable information, such as any balances that are currently due.

• Account history, such as customer ranking, invoice, and payment information.

• Open sales orders, which enable you to review order dates and amounts.
