  1. can we put multiple credit limit in one creditor in each voucher we entered? like we are purchasing from abc limited and out of it one order made to pay in 30 days and second order agreed to pay in 45 day. so the question is can we set credit limit as per Tax invoice requirement even the party of supply is same?
