# How do I include the sales orders’ amount when limiting the credit given to my customers?

To include the sales orders’ amount when limiting your customer’s credit limit:

*   Go to _**Settings**_ on the top right corner of the page and select **Preferences**.
*   In the _Preferences_ pane, select **Customers** **and** **Vendors**.
*   In the _General_ tab, under _Customer Credit Limit_, check the **Include** **sales orders’ amount in limiting the credit given to** **customers** option.

*   Scroll down and click **Save**.

Now, whenever you create or edit sales orders for a customer, and the total amount exceeds their credit limit, a warning will be displayed when you attempt to save the sales order, or you may not be able to save the sales order, depending on the credit limit preference.
