Party & Customer

Post by krishna.motupalli »

Hi Friends,

What is the difference between a PARTY and a CUSTOMER from Receivables point of view.

I thank to all those who give their valuable feedback regarding the above topic.


Regards,
Krishna

When you create a customer using Receivables, system creates the customer as a party, which means you can have both purchasing and selling relationship with the organization.

Customer is purely a selling relationship where was Party can be much more than that.
