The Payment Terms Type document is used to establish codes that define a vendor's payment terms, including the number of days in which a payment is due and if a discount is available for prompt payment.
The Payment Terms Type document includes the Edit Payment Term Type tab. The system automatically enters data into both the Old and New sections in this tab. Selected data fields are available for editing.
