If the customer is on credit hold or the order takes the customer above their credit limit, the order will always go on a status of Credit Hold (17)

If the above flag is being used for other upload programs in PRONTO and you want to have a different rule for those orders uploaded from the web, an override program entry can be set up using the CSSTATUS option. See Settings and Functions Available in the PRONTO Order and Receipt Import Program for information on how to set this up.
