the oldest credit (by issue date) gets applied first, with invoice number as a tiebreaker if multiple credits share the same date you just enter a total credit amount the plugin automatically applies eligible credits oldest first until that amount is covered can i apply more credits than the bill amount? no the plugin will automatically cap the credit amount to the "to pay" value you cannot overpay a bill using credits what happens if i select bills with applied credits on page 1, then go to page 2? credit applications persist across pages any credits applied on page 1 reduce the credits available balance shown on page 2 the plugin tracks all credit applications across the entire bill list, not just the current page can i choose which specific credit to apply to a bill? no the plugin automatically selects the oldest credits first (by issue date) if you need to apply a specific credit to a specific bill, you can apply credits directly in netsuite and then pay the remaining bill amount through the bank plugin if your business heavily relies on selecting specific credits for specific bills, please send a feature request to our support team can i override the credit amount the plugin selects? yes you can enter any amount up to the credits available balance the plugin will automatically select the oldest credits first to cover the amount you entered if you want to use less credit, simply enter a smaller amount can i pay bills in different currencies together if i'm using credits? yes, but credits must match each bill's currency for example usd credits can only offset usd bills cad credits can only offset cad bills the plugin automatically shows only matching currency credits for each bill you'll need a bank account in each currency to complete the payment
