[labnetwork] Habitual late payments from external clients

[Gerald Lopez]

Hi Julia -

Great question. I assume this is for external corporate users? We had a
similar problem. Other than cutting off access, we put in preventative
measures. We have a prepayment program that the external users can use to
draw down their credit. This is similar to larger companies who authorize a
PO for a specific amount to not exceed their allocated budget for a project
as we invoice against it.

Best,
Gerald
