Enable Customer Credit Limit Control​

Choices: Show Warning / Disable / Restrict

Checks a regular customer's credit when you save a sales outbound. If the customer's running balance (unpaid deliveries plus this one) is above their Credit Limit:

  • Show Warning: CIRMS warns you and lets you continue.
  • Disable: no credit check, and credit information is hidden.
  • Restrict: saving is blocked, unless the user has Sales and Other Income › Sales Outbound › Allow Customer exceed credit limit (they get the warning instead).

Affects: Sales Outbound

Should untransferred (post-dated or uncleared) checks be counted in the credit limit usage?​

Choices: Yes / No

  • Yes: checks the customer gave that are not yet cleared (post-dated or not deposited) still count as unpaid when the credit limit is checked.
  • No: once a collection with a check is recorded, that amount is treated as paid.

Affects: Customer, Sales Outbound

Warn if inventory reaches minimum?​

Choices: Yes / No

  • Yes: when you save, CIRMS subtracts each product's quantity from its stock in the transaction's location. If the result is at or below the product's minimum for that location, a warning lists those products ("already reaches minimum") and you choose whether to continue. Rows also show a warning icon when the product's inventory or available inventory is negative.
  • No: no minimum check and no warning icons.

The warning never blocks saving. Minimums are set per location in the product's details.

Choices: Yes / No

  • Yes: the Price Based on label (which shows the customer's pricing, for example Customer Settings) is hidden from the transaction header, so it doesn't show on screen.
  • No: the label is shown.

Auto-print after Save?​

Choices: Yes / No

  • Yes: right after you save or approve a transaction in this module, CIRMS opens the print preview with the template chosen in the next setting. If Enable Printing of Transactions Only When Approved is on, it only prints when the transaction is approved.
  • No: nothing prints automatically; use the print button when you need it.
  • Approve and Print always prints (for users allowed to approve and print), whatever this setting says.

Auto-print only works for users with the module's print permission, and each auto-print counts toward the print preview limit set in Transaction Preferences.
