For more information: [Payment terms (CS206500)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/common-settings/common-settings-windows/payment-terms-cs206500/index.md).

You use the [Payment terms (CS206500)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/common-settings/common-settings-windows/payment-terms-cs206500/index.md) window to define each set of payment terms.
For a set of payment terms, you can specify payment as a single instalment (described in [Configure single-instalment payment terms](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/customer-ledger/manage-credit-policy/payment-terms/configure-single-instalment-payment-terms/index.md)) or as multiple instalments
(described in this topic).

1. Go to the [Payment terms (CS206500)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/common-settings/common-settings-windows/payment-terms-cs206500/index.md) window.
1. In the **General information** section, in the **Terms ID** field, type the ID of the payment terms. The ID may contain up to ten characters.

    1. In the **Days** column, type the number of days from the due date on which this particular instalment is due.
    1. In the **Percent** column, type the percent of the instalment.
1. In the **Due date type** field of the **Due day settings** section, select the due date type. For detailed descriptions of the options, see: [About payment terms](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/customer-ledger/manage-credit-policy/payment-terms/about-payment-terms/index.md).
