Article06/09/20233 min read

On the Customer Compliances Documents page, you can link multiple compliance documents (previously set up on the Compliance Documents page) to a customer. These compliance documents will then default as sales compliance documents in the sales order process for that customer.

Note

In the customer compliance documents, you can fill in more specific information about the compliance document, such as a request and the document date.

For each document, you can specify if this document is only applicable to specific items and/or item attributes. When assigning an existing compliance document to the customer compliance document, the values are automatically inherited.
