Terms	The Price Key field defaults to Price key 1 however you can change this. There are 10 price keys available for you to choose from. Price keys are entered as Price Keys in the Stock module.

Our Stock module enables you to enter 10 selling and buying prices for a product, with various pricing methods from fixed to uplifted or quantity. If you have the Override Default Price Line option set in system for the Purchasing module, then price line settings from the terms may override if you select a zero price when you include a stock item in the order. If you haven't selected the override option, then you can include zero prices in an order line, allowing the purchase of a free stock item.
Discount	Defaults to zero and you can edit this. You need to complete all Settlement Discount fields to prevent validation messages. Settlement Discount 1 must have a higher percentage and lower number of days than Settlement Discount 2.

A confirmation message appears to confirm the addition of the delivery charge as you finish and save the purchase order. If an entry is made in both fields, it uses the higher value.
Credit Section	If you enter a credit limit, the system warns you if a transaction you're entering exceeds the set limit set on the account.

Normal days are set as default for five days. Urgent days are set as default for one day.
