Aged creditors

The aged creditors report is the mirror image of aged debtors: what you owe suppliers, bucketed by age. Use it before each payment run and at month end.

Run the report

1. Open Reporting → Financial → Aged creditors.
2. Pick the as-at date.
3. Optionally filter by site or supplier.
4. Run.

What it shows

Each supplier appears as one row:

• Supplier name.
• Total outstanding.
• Amount in each ageing bucket.
• Available credit (supplier credit notes netted against bills).
• Net position.
• Earliest unpaid bill.
• Payment terms (net 14, net 30, etc.).

Buckets follow the same model as aged debtors: current, 0 to 30, 31 to 60, 61 to 90, 91 to 180, over 180 days.

Use cases

• Pre-payment run — identify what is due in the next batch.
• Month-end review — confirm the creditor balance on the trial balance.
• Cash forecasting — combine with the bank balance to project the runway.
• Supplier dispute — see exactly what is on hold and why.

Holds and disputes

Bills can be marked on hold with a reason (disputed amount, missing certificate, awaiting credit note). The aged creditors report shows held bills in a separate column so they are not paid by mistake.

Variants

• By payment terms — group bills by terms to spot suppliers whose terms differ from your default.
• By site — useful when sites are billed separately.
• Top 20 creditors — your largest exposures.
