Message "City Ledger Credit Limit Exceeded"


The "City Ledger Credit Limit Exceeded" message is triggered when you attempt to post charges to a City Ledger account that has exceeded its established credit limit. This notification serves as a warning to alert you that the account's balance has surpassed the predefined credit threshold, helping you manage credit limits effectively and prevent overextension of credit for the account.

The Credit Limit is a predetermined monetary threshold that defines the maximum allowable line of credit for a City Ledger account. You can configure and adjust these credit limits within the City Ledger account profile. If you encounter a situation where the account's balance exceeds its credit limit, you have two options: either clear the outstanding balance by posting payments to bring it within the limit, or raise the credit limit to accommodate the required charges, ensuring smooth financial transactions for the account.
