Netting Group Lines
As a next step, you define the further Netting Group Members. On the Members tab, select the Manage menu item and New Row, or click in an empty row to create a new row. Specify,
- whether the Account Type is a Customer or a Vendor and
- what Account No. the group member has.

Note
Each customer or vendor can only be a member of exactly one Netting group. If you want to assign the member to another Netting group, you must first delete it in its "old" group.
Customer Card
You can also see the membership of an Netting Group in the Customer / Vendor card in the Payments tab:
Note
You can also assign customers or vendors to existing Netting groups from the customer / vendor card. To do this, fill in the corresponding field.
