## 01 A new customer

Customers are shared with the rest of Octyn; the credit account sits on top.

1.  Add the customer with their details and choose **Save**.

## 02 The credit account

Limit, terms and deposit decide how far the customer can run.

1.  Go to **Credit → Accounts** and open a credit account for the customer. Only customers without an account are offered.
2.  Set the credit limit, payment terms and any deposit, and choose **Save the account**. The account is active from today.

## 03 Vehicles

Slips are written against a vehicle, so fuel can be traced to a truck.

1.  Open the account's **Vehicles** and choose **Add vehicle**.
2.  Enter the number, type and usual driver, and add it. It can now be picked on a slip.

## 04 Slips at the counter

Fuel given on credit is written on a slip during a shift.

1.  During the shift, write a slip for each credit fill: vehicle, product and litres. The slip lowers the cash the attendant owes at cash-up.

## 05 Taking a payment

A receipt settles the oldest slips first, or the ones you pick.

1.  Open **Receipts**, pick the customer to see what is outstanding, and choose **Record receipt**.
2.  Enter the amount, the method and the bank account the money went to.
3.  Choose **Oldest first** (or pick the slips it pays) and **Record**. Anything over becomes an advance. The balance drops at once.

## 06 The statement

What the customer receives: opening, slips, payments, closing.

1.  Open **Statements**, pick the customer and period, and choose how the statement rounds — each line, the total, or neither.
2.  Choose **Generate PDF**, then download it or share the link.

## 07 Who owes what, and for how long

Aging, consumption and the follow-up list.

1.  **Aging** shows balances by how overdue they are — the older buckets are the ones to chase.
2.  **Vehicle use** shows litres and value per customer and vehicle.
3.  **Collections** is the chase list, with notes and follow-up dates for every call.

**Done.** Account, vehicles, slips, receipts, statement and aging. [Open it in Octyn](https://app.octynerp.com/credit/accounts).
