stehen bleiben

English translation: the customer's balance remains unchanged

Bus/Financial - Computers: Software / software
German term or phrase: stehen bleiben
Software für Warenwirtschaft

"Wenn man beim Restbetrag 00 eingibt, dann bleibt der Restbetrag bei dem Kunden stehen und erscheint dann ggf. in der nächsten Mahnung".

I have difficulties with "bleibt der Restbetrag bei dem Kunden stehen"

Please help!

my try: When entering 00 at the balance, the balance remains to (?) the customer and should the occasion arise it appears in the next reminder.

Thanks for your help

agree  Kim Metzger: Sounds good to me. I don't think Karin should translate ggf. as "should the occasion arise." Maybe "may appear in the next reminder."

neutral  Andrzej Lejman: ich vermute, dass sich der Restbetrag nach Eingabe von 00 nicht ändert; davon besagt Ihre Antwort nichts.

neutral  John Kinory (X): I have to agree with AL. 'should the occasion arise' is inappropriate in this context - KM's suggestions is much better.

neutral  John Kinory (X): You would not say this on an English-language bank document. Maybe 'remains with', but even that sounds odd. 'behind' is completely out of place.
