Client Age Records

Every client account will automatically have a client age record, even if their account is up-to-date.

Billdozer calculates the maximum age of the client’s debt on a daily basis. In addition to the daily check, Billdozer automatically updates the client age record whenever a receipt or credit note is issued.

The Client Age Records screen provides you with a list of client accounts that are in arrears. Choose the required radio button to filter the list to display the arrears accounts according to the following criteria:

• All – displays all client accounts (irrespective of whether the account is in arrears or not).
• 30 Days – only displays accounts that have been in arrears for 30 days (or less).
• 60 Days – only displays accounts that have been in arrears for 60 days (or less).
• 90 Days – only displays accounts that have been in arrears for 90 days (or less).
• 120+ Days – only displays accounts that have been in arrears for 120 days (or more).

Note: Additional filtering on this list can be done on the required column heading (see Common Tasks/Filtering Lists for more details).
