Use

When you enter a key for installment payments, the text Due in is displayed as well as the Payment terms field and the Days/perc. fields remain empty.

Features

Terms of payment for installments are composed of individual terms of payment, with one payment term for each installment. When you post an installment, the total amount is split up into individual items for each installment and each installment is calculated with the relevant payment term. For information about how to maintain terms of payment, refer to the Implementation Guide for Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable.
