Create Interest Proposal
Explanation
This activity is used to
create an interest proposal. Each user can have only one proposal up at a time.
An interest proposal is linked to the user identity, which
enables several users to have an interest proposal created at the same time. The
Create
Interest Proposal window can only be used by a particular user at
any given instance. Further, the same invoice cannot be included in more than
one proposal at a time.
Before a proposal can be created, the Accepted Delay value in
Interest
Templates window must have elapsed. Invoices are excluded from interest
proposal if they are linked to an interest template in which the Calculate
Interest check box is not selected. If a number of the same recipients invoices have passed the minimum interest amount per invoice but together do not
pass the minimum amount per interest invoice/note, they are
excluded in the
interest proposal. Interest invoices/notes, credit invoices, prepayment-based
invoices and prepayments are also not included in the proposal and thus not
covered by interest calculation.
Prerequisites
There should be at least one
invoice due for payment.
System Effects
When an invoice is included in a proposal, it cannot be selected and included in
another proposal.
