Customer Payment Terms Not Editable in Hierarchal Setup

How do I edit the payment terms for a customer/job that is in a hierarchal setup BELOW the parent customer? I've changed the terms for the parent customer to Net 45, but the jobs below that are NOT automatically updating (they're stuck on Net 30). I've tried mass changing and this field is not even editable for any non-parent customers/jobs.

Customer Payment Terms Not Editable in Hierarchal Setup

Hi. I have several customers that did not have Terms set up for them initially. Jobs have been created under the Customer. I have updated the Terms for the Customer but cannot find out how to add the Terms into specific Jobs. I understand that previous invoices etc. neet to be changed manually but am looking to find out how to add in the Terms so that I don't have to select this when creating invoices.
