Manage Payment Terms in the Back-Office 

Use payment terms configured per customer to help them use the payment conditions guaranteed by their contract with your company.

A payment term is a set of conditions required for a sale to be completed, e.g., the period that is allowed for a buyer to pay off the amount due. Payment terms may also include cash in the advance requirement, cash collection on delivery, a deferred payment period of 10/20/30 days, etc.

Hint

To use payment terms in the storefront:

  1. Enable Payment Terms Integration in the system configuration.

  2. Create a Payment Term with the conditions you would like to offer your buyers.

  3. Link a Payment Term to a Customer Based on Their Sales Agreement (optional).

  4. Create a payment rule and add your integration to it to display this method to the customers at checkout.
