Definition: What is it?

A billing account is a ???way of allowing customers to consolidate several invoices into an account that is paid off at a later date. Customers can be allocated a credit limit and orders can be taken up to the value of the credit limit without any payment being made. Statements to the customer can then be generated (eg monthly) and payment is made based on the outstanding amount.
