Run Debtors

1) Specify your Client Criteria using a combination of filters:

 

 

Parameter Default Setting
From & To Client's Surname ('From' 0 'To' zzz will show all clients).
Category The Client's registered Client Category.
Debt Level 'Less than' or 'Greater than' a specified figure. Leave blank to not apply this filter.
Client Site The Client's registered site. (Client Details)
Last Payment Date Filter out any clients that have made a payment since the date specified.
Ignore All / None Checking this box will tick every client's 'Ignore' column. Unchecking this box will do the reverse.
Exclude Bad Debtors If checked, any clients with the account category 'Is Bad Debtor' assigned will be filtered out.
Client Type

Filter Clients by All, Charity or Non-Charity.

Account Categories Filter by Clients registered with a specific Account Category.
Account Type Filter by All, HCP or Non-HCP account transactions.
Include Credit Accounts IF enabled, Creditors are included in the Debtors list.

 

2) Specify your Date and Period criteria.

 

 

Current Period From Date = The date you are running your Debtors from.

Period 1 = Usually set to one month i.e. 30 days.

Period 2 = Usually set to the previous month i.e. 60 days.

Period 3 = Usually set to the following month i.e. 90 days.

 

By default, the billing periods are set to 30 days but it is possible to amend these according to your requirements e.g. so that the date is the last day of each month respectively.

 

To change the dates for 'Current', 'Period 1', 'Period 2' and/or 'Period 3', either type directly into the 'Days' fields (e.g. changing 30 to 31) or you can use the date calendar to select specific dates to define each period.

 

Note: The last used period days are stored in your user profile, for example, if your debtor periods are always 7,14 and 21 days, the system will remember this preference.

 

3) Once you have specified the above criteria, the next step is to run the debtors using one of the following option:

 

'Run' = Runs debtors using the criteria specified showing all debt.

 

or

 

'Run for Non Paid Insurance Items Only' = Runs debtors using the criteria specified but only shows insurance debt.

 

4) Once you have selected one of the above options, a list of Clients will be displayed.
