Can I sell products and collect payment from a company that has filed chapter 11 and has a past due account prior to filing date

A customer of our owes past due funds. That customer has filed chapter 11, however still wants to purchase products from us on a COD basis. Would we be liable for having to return those funds since we are a creditor prior to Chapter 11 filing? Any funds currently collected would be towards current purchases after the filing date.
