Use this field to manually determine the next collection letter code that will be used for the customer:

• Valid collection letter code- Collection letter 1==> next collection letter - Collection letter 2

• Valid collection letter code- Collection letter 2==> next collection letter - Collection letter 3and so on.

For example, if the user changes the customer transaction setup from Collection letter 2to Collection letter 3, the next collection letter is created by using Collection letter 4.

If the created collection letter is updated while it is printed or posted, the customer transaction form is also updated in the Collection letter, Collection letter code, and Datefields. The Valid collection letter codefield displays the same collection letter code as the updated collection letter.

If an updated collection letter is canceled, the customer transaction is reset to the previously updated collection letter code.

In practice, there are many reasons to manually adjust a collection letter code. The following example of invoices for the same customer illustrates the situation:

• An invoice totaling EUR 100,000.00 with Collection letter 2.

• An invoice totaling EUR 20.00 with Collection letter 4.

It would not be reasonable to use the text of collection letter code 4, because the invoice totaling EUR 20.00 will also be included in that collection letter if the Collection per customerparameter is used in Creation of collection letter.
