## How to Globally Set a Minimum Threshold Rate to Restrict Billing Below It in Sale Bill?

This tutorial explains how to enable a control in Logic ERP that prevents users from entering a billing rate below a specified threshold, such as the MRP (Maximum Retail Price). This feature ensures compliance with pricing policies and prevents loss due to under-billing.

***

### Step-by-Step Configuration

* Navigate to the Logic folder and run Logic Admin.
* Open Global Settings.
* Click to Sales Settings - 2 tab.
* Find and enable the option: **“Do not Allow Billing Rate Below”**
* Use the dropdown to select the rate type you want to enforce (e.g., **MRP**, **Purchase Rate**, **Last Sale Rate**, etc.).

* Select **MRP** in this case.
* Click **Save** to apply the changes.
* After saving, **restart Logic ERP** to activate the new settings.

### Configure Sale Bill Series:

* The setting is also available within the **Sale Bill Configuration** module.
* However, when applied here, it must be **configured separately for each billing series.**
* To ensure consistent application across the organization, it is recommended to enable the setting via **Logic Admin under Global Settings.**

***

### **Behavior After Activation**

* Open the **Sales Bill** window.
* Create a **new sale entry**.
* When entering a billing rate **below the selected threshold (e.g., MRP)**:
  * The system will show a **validation prompt**:

    > "Billing rate cannot be below the MRP."
