Sample:
You have a Customer with credit limit $ 700,000.00. And now, the current BP’s balance is $ 691,299.58. You want to create another A/R Invoice with total amount $ 10,923.79.
There’s a notification that customer exceeded credit limit.
Here’s the calculation:
Current Document Total Balance (DO/ AR Invoice) + Customer Account Balance > Credit Limit Amount
$ 10,923.79 + $ 691,299.58 = $ 702,223.37, and $ 702,223.37 > $ 700,000.00 (credit limit).
The residual credit limit balance = $ 702,223.37 – $ 700,000.00 = $ 2,223.37
