Order Levels control which GL Accounts are used for a specific order. For example, organizations that sell products to other internal divisions and may want to record the sale, but book the sale to a different set of GL Accounts than if it were being sold to an outside customer. People and companies can have default order and payment levels that are used for purchases, but these items can be overridden on the order. For information on GL Order Levels, see the About Order Levels and GL Accounts section of the "Orders, Payments and Scheduled Transactions" chapter in the Aptify Accounting & Financial Systems Integration Guide for more information.

Payment Type

Indicates how the customer is paying for the order. The default is Purchase Order. Each company or individual using a PO# must have an approved credit status and credit limit recorded in Aptify (if Aptify is configured to perform credit checks — see "Overview of Understanding Order Credit" on page 74 for  for details). Accounting sets up the credit status and limit of each company or individual. If an order exceeds a company's or individual's credit limit, they must purchase the items using a different Pay Type. Other choices applicable for standing orders include credit card payments and ACH electronic transfers. Depending on the Pay Type chosen, the fields in the payment section change.

  • Note : Past that past payment types will flow down based on the Ship To person indicated in the order. For example, if the Ship To person's last order was completed using Visa as the selected payment type, the next new order for this person would default to Visa as the payment type.
     
Note

When using a credit card Payment Type, the card may be authorized at the time of the Standing Order, but should not be charged until the Standing Order is shipped. If the organization is using a third-party merchant account for credit card processing, the credit card is typically authorized automatically when the Standing Order is saved. The credit card is then charged after the Standing Order is shipped by running the Capture wizard within Aptify.
