A/P Aging
What you owe vendors, grouped by how many days past due.
The A/P aging report groups what you owe by how far past due it is. Check it before a payment run or a large purchase.
Reading the report
- Check the tie-out
The total should equal your Accounts Payable balance, and the report checks this for you. It includes payable adjustments posted without a bill. If it doesn't tie, a warning links to the ledger so you can find the difference.
- Look at what's overdue
Click a bucket to show only those rows. Anything past current is a supplier you've kept waiting.
- Plan the payment run
Start with the oldest and largest, weighed against which suppliers matter most and any early-payment discounts.
Read it next to your cash
$10,000 in the bank with $9,000 due next week is a different position from $10,000 with nothing owed, though your banking app shows the same number. A/P aging shows the difference.
Good to know
- Export downloads the report.
- Bills you haven't entered aren't here. Enter bills when they arrive, not when you pay them.
