1.1. Fields

  • Code - payment term code, must be invented. Letters or numbers can be used. Since most of the reports show codes, the more informative it is, the better. For example if the payment term is 10 days, it is reasonable to create payment term with code 10.
  • Name - payment term name. Used on invoice printout if necessary.
  • Rounding - can set how many places after comma the invoice is rounded. The drop-down menu options are 0, 1, 2 and 5. 0 is rounded to the integer, 1 is 1 decimal place and 2 is 2 decimal places. In the case of 5, the invoice total is rounded to the nearest 5 cent so that 1- and 2-cent coins should not be used (as in Finland, for example). For example, if the invoice sum is 15.32, the sum will be rounded to 15.30 and 15.33 to 15.35.
