Action / Description |
Aging category 1 - 6 |
Optional |
Specify a maximum of six aging categories. Enter the maximum number of days for each category; invoices that are less than or equal to this age are totaled in this category. You can base the invoice age on the due date or the invoice date (see the option Age on I=Invoice or D=Due date above). The system always ages on-account payments and deposits in the first category, and always ages adjustments and payments with the invoices to which they were applied. You can set the first category as -1 to include invoices that are due in the future; you should set the last category to 9999 if you want to include all invoices. You can leave categories blank. For example, if you only want 4 categories, you can leave 5 and 6 blank and set 4 as 9999. However, the number in each aging category must be greater than the preceding category. If you do not define aging categories in this program, the system uses the default aging categories you specify in the System Options Maintenance (XM) program (Accounts Receivable Options). |
Column heading 1 - 6 |
Optional |
Enter column headings for the aging categories you created. Examples are Future, Current, 31-60 days, 61-90 days, 91-120 days, and Over 120 days. |
