Sales Ledger
The Sales Ledger report is a summary of the position on each Customer's account. Together with the
Receipts Forecast and
Periodic Customer Statement report, it is a very useful tool for debt-chasing purposes.
In its basic form, it shows Customer Name and Telephone Number and, for each Invoice, the amount outstanding, the Due Date and the age or number of days overdue. Note that, as in all FirstOffice reports, the number of overdue days is shown as a negative figure.
When printed to screen, the History and Overview options of this report have FirstOffice's Drill-down feature. Click on any Invoice or Receipt Number to open an individual Invoice or Receipt record.
