A new client credit control system for Open Item clients is now available. The "Charge" option on the "Client management" screen has been replaced by a combo selector with the following options:

• No charge account
• Charge account
• Monitored charge acct

The system can be set to automatically revoke a client's ability to purchase when debt levels breach one or more defined criteria and re- enabled once the debt levels return to an appropriate level. This functionality can be enabled on the "Clients | Credit Control" page of "Maintenance | Setup | System". Debt can be managed using the age of outstanding invoices and/or the credit limit.

When upgrading to SP45 all clients who had a "Charge account" will be converted to a "Monitored charge acct" but users will need to enable the functionality in "Maintenance | Set up | Clients | Credit Control".

For more information please see the Service Pack 45 notes.
