2. Capricorn Suppliers running Caplink in Integrated mode do not need to manually check a Member’s Credit Status before attempting to enter an invoice in to their business system, as their business system will check the Member’s Credit Status against the Capricorn Gateway at point of sale and alert the user to any issues. For Capricorn Suppliers using Caplink in Standalone mode, the Supplier should be entering their transactions in to Caplink at point of sale. Caplink will check the Member’s Credit Status and advise of any issues at that time. Suppliers running Caplink in Batch mode are the most susceptible to completing sales to Members on Stop Credit as Caplink is not involved at point of sale.

5. For Suppliers in Batch mode, checking the Credit Status of each Member is not enough if the Supplier does not export the batch from their Business System to Caplink at COB every day. There’s nothing to prevent a Member from going on Stop Credit overnight and thus being rejected by Caplink when the batch containing their transactions is finally processed. In the same vein, Standalone Suppliers should enter all their transactions in to Caplink at point of sale to preclude any problems with a Member going on Stop Credit between the time of sale and time of processing.
