• Key Concepts: 
  Payment period is a feature in SAP Business One (SBO) that allows users to set up payment terms for customers. It allows users to define the number of days a customer has to pay an invoice, as well as the discount percentage that will be applied if the customer pays within the specified period. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To set up payment periods in SBO, go to Administration > Setup > Financials > Payment Terms. From there, you can create a new payment term and specify the number of days for the payment period and the discount percentage. Once you have saved the payment term, it will be available for selection when creating invoices. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up payment periods, it is important to consider the customer’s ability to pay. If you set too short of a payment period, customers may not be able to pay on time and may incur late fees. On the other hand, if you set too long of a payment period, customers may take advantage of the extended time and delay payments.
