Apply Default Payment Terms To A Price List

Default Payment Terms can be created and applied to a Price List in order to automatically set expected payments from customers when you create a Standalone Quote.

The optional  Terms field is for payment policies like Net 10, Net 30 or Due on Receipt and can be pulled into Quote & Order Forms. Deposits can be established as a percentage or a fixed amount and are shown in Quote & Order Lines.

Default Payment Terms for Accounts must be set separately. Applying Default Payment Terms to a Price List only applies those Terms to Standalone Quotes.

To manually apply Payment Terms to a  Quote or Order, see Related Articles below.
