| A credit limit is the maximum amount of credit that a financial institution or
 | |
| other lender will extend to a debtor for a particular line of credit. From an
 | |
| organisation's perspective, it is the maximum amount of credit which a
 | |
| customer gets on goods purchased.  
 | |
| 
 | |
| To set credit limit go to Customer - Master
 | |
| 
 | |
| > Selling > Document > Customer 
 | |

| Go to the 'More Info section' and enter the amount in the field Credit Limit.
 | |
| 
 | |
| In case a need arises to allow more credit to the customer as a good-will, the
 | |
| Credit Controller has access to submit order even if credit limit is crossed.
 | |
| 
 | |
| To allow any other role to submit transactions by customers whose credit limit
 | |
| has expired, go to accounting settings and make changes.
 | |
| 
 | |
| In the field Credit Controller, select the role who would be authorized to
 | |
| accept orders or raise credit limits of customers.
