I hope there is another Credit Manager (Someone) out there who has found a way to modify the aging buckets OR create a “days past due” by using “todays date” - “due date” in Transaction mode.
Both of the ERPs our comany uses have the ability to see this smaller bucket which is a warning to our reps that the customer’s next order will be blocked and I have asked IT to ask Phocas bout this for months. Could someone put me out of my misery if this is even possible?
I don’t have the standard AR database and instead built my own aged debt report using the date ranges like this:
I presume you have a specific stop day, so if the customer is x days past due date they will go on hold.
In this instance, I’ve set the date range to as long as I can to include all transactions and created two columns, one is “Overdue” - all transactions due more than x days before today (the stop day), the other being “Due” - all transactions not yet old enough to result in the account being on stop.
If an account has a balance in the Overdue column they risk being on stop.
We can filter this to only show those potentially on stop by right clicking on the column and adding a filter for where value is Greater than 0.
@mbe Just to give you another option, we’ve done something similar to the “days past due”. We wanted to have a report showing new customers for the past 90 days. We had a “Created Date” property already, and you could filter a report on that field, but you had to specify a specific date for the filter. So you would have to constantly change this date. So in the DB designer, we added an expression, “DaysSinceCreated”, with the formula of “DATEDIFF(d, [CreatedDate], GETDATE())”. Then added this new field as a property. Now we can filter the report on DaysSinceCreated < 90.
