Service Charges

Service Charges are finance charges applied to overdue invoices of Sales Orders and will only generate if both of the following are true:

  • The Terms assigned to the Sales Order have a value specified in the "Finance %" field.
  • The Bill-to Company on the Sales Order, and corresponding Ship-to, have the "Service Charge" flag set to true.

That means even if Terms for an order have a "Finance %" listed, unless this "Service Charge" flag is set to true, Service Charges will not generate.
