All customers and suppliers must have a valid non-blank credit terms code assigned to them before converting to QAD Enterprise Edition. The Data Preparation Report indicates if you must run this utility.

A blank credit terms code (that is, ct_code = <blank>) is no longer permissible and the conversion deletes it. To simulate the scenario of a customer or supplier with no credit terms, create a credit terms code in Credit Terms Maintenance (2.19.1, adcrtmt.p) with 0 Disc Days and 0% Disc Pct.

Any credit terms code assigned to customers or suppliers must exist in Credit Terms Master (ct_mstr).

Run the utility separately for customers and suppliers. You can run the utility for a range of customers or suppliers when you must assign multiple credit terms codes. It reports any customers and suppliers having a blank or invalid credit terms code and updates missing terms with the user-specified code.

To see customers or suppliers with invalid credit terms assigned, leave the Credit Terms field blank and set Update to No.

The utility provides a simulation mode that allows you to preview the effects of the update.

The report output file name is uxcrterms-cust-<dbname>-<domain>-<date>_<time>.prn or uxcrterms-supp-<dbname>-<domain>-<date>_<time>.prn.

For eB2.1 and later, run the utility for each active domain.

This utility alters future transactions involving the customers or suppliers updated with new credit terms.
