Press the {?} to the right of this field to open a window titled Select an IBS Customer which displays all current customers.

A/R Account: This report can be run for all A/R Accounts or for a single A/R Account.

Press the {  ?} to the right of this field to open a window titled Select Company Branch which displays a listing of all existing Branches.

Aging Date *: Enter the date you wish all of the selected accounts receivable files which have a balance due to be aged against.

Press the [?] to the right of this field to activate a pop-up calendar which can be used to select the date. Once a date has been selected, the up/down arrows to the right of this field can be used to move the date up or down one day at a time. This is a required field.

Include Age: Enter the age of the accounts receivable files you wish to include in this report. If you wish to include all files, then enter a "0" (zero) in this field. If you wish to include only old files, then enter the minimum age of the files you wish to select. Any file whose age is less than the number of days entered in this field will be excluded from this report.

Age Credit Balances: Check this box if you want A/R credit balance items to be aged in their proper aging category. The system will automatically include all credit balance items in the 0-30 days category unless this box is checked.
