If you’re still chasing spreadsheets, exporting raw data, or manually highlighting overdue invoices – it’s time to stop.
Receivables management is not just about knowing who owes you. It’s about knowing what to do next.
That’s exactly what we’ve built into ERPNext: a Customer Statement with Aging Report that doesn’t just display balances – it drives action.
💡 The Problem
For most finance teams, customer statements offer little more than a list of invoices and balances. There’s no prioritization, no clarity on risk, and no context for decision-making.
As a result:
- Teams waste hours figuring out which accounts to chase
- Overdue payments go unnoticed until they’re in crisis
- Managers lack visibility into how bad things really are
We knew ERPNext could do better – so we made it smarter.
🚀 What We Built: A Statement That Thinks for You
The Customer Statement with Aging Report in ERPNext now delivers everything a business needs to take control of its receivables:
✅ From / To Date Filters
Quickly focus on specific periods without changing the whole report logic.
✅ Transaction Breakdown
See every customer’s activity – with clean formatting, references, and running balances.
✅ Aging Summary with Color-Coded Buckets
Instantly identify risk levels using intuitive categories:
- 0 – 30 Days (Green)
- 31 – 60 Days (Yellow)
- 61 – 90 Days (Amber)
- 91 – 120 Days (Orange)
- Over 120 Days (Red)
✅ Dual Totals
- Total Due as of Selected Date – What’s overdue up to your report date
- Total Due (All Time) – Your full receivables exposure
✅ Built-in Readability
All values are formatted with thousand separators and grouped for clarity – ready for print, export, or PDF sharing.
🎯 Why It Matters
Managing receivables is more than tracking money – it’s about preserving cash flow, minimizing credit risk, and empowering teams with data they can act on.
With this report, businesses can:
- Prioritize high-risk accounts
- Schedule follow-ups based on severity
- Report with confidence to internal and external stakeholders
It’s not just a report – it’s a decision-making tool.
Let’s talk if you’d like help integrating this into your ERPNext system or adapting it to your receivables strategy.
Stay unchained.
