Correct. >Is there a way to create this 'interest charge' product that makes it a >variable of say 10%, and then all I have to do is enter in the amount of >the outstanding invoice and it will calculate the amount? I know it's not >hard to calculate 10%, but I'm talking about converting those to monthly, >and having odd numbers in there as well. Nope... not going to happen, as I've outlined the reasons why probably 5 or 6 times on this list before (and I KNOW you have been on it the whole time)... But here I go again... There would be no way to know what invoice(s) it has already accrued interest for. It would accrue the month's worth of interest every day until it was paid. Invoices are also not for a set time period, so there is no SET due date for a particular invoice. My best suggestion is that if they go past due, cancel them and then charge them a $20 reactivation fee or something. - Shawn ------------------------------- Shawn D.
