Aging Report

The aging report shows outstanding invoices and bills grouped by how long they have been overdue. It is the primary tool for managing credit risk and cash flow — you can see at a glance who owes you money (and how long they have been owing it) and what you owe suppliers.


Accessing the report

Go to Reports → Aging.


Receivables vs payables

Use the toggle at the top of the page to switch between:

  • Receivables — customer invoices you have issued that are not yet paid
  • Payables — supplier bills you have received that are not yet paid

Both views use the same bracket structure.


Age brackets

BracketDescription
CurrentNot yet due
1–30 daysOverdue by up to 30 days
31–60 daysOverdue by 31–60 days
61–90 daysOverdue by 61–90 days
90+ daysOverdue by more than 90 days

Brackets are colour-coded:

  • Green — Current
  • Yellow — 1–30 days
  • Orange — 31–60 days
  • Red — 61–90 days
  • Dark red — 90+ days

Reading the report

Each row represents one contact (customer or supplier). Columns show the outstanding amount in each age bracket. The footer row shows totals across all contacts.

Click any amount to see the individual invoices that make up that total.


As-of date

The report is calculated relative to an as-of date. The default is today. To see the aging position as it was at a past date (for example, at year-end for audit purposes), set the As of date picker.

Frequently asked questions

Why does an invoice show in "Current" even though the customer is a slow payer? An invoice in "Current" is not yet past its due date. It will move to "1–30 days" the day after the due date passes.

Can I see the aging report for a specific period in my fiscal year? Change the As of date to the end of the period you want to review.

How does a partial payment affect the aging report? Only the outstanding balance appears in the report — partial payments reduce the amount shown in the relevant bracket.

My total receivables in the aging report do not match the balance sheet — why? The balance sheet accounts receivable balance includes credit notes not yet applied. Check for unapplied credit notes under Invoices → Credit Notes.
