Understanding the aging buckets
Section titled “Understanding the aging buckets”Aging is calculated from the invoice due date relative to the As Of date. An invoice is placed in the appropriate bucket based on how many days have elapsed since its due date:
- Current — the due date is on or after the As Of date.
- 1–30 Days — the due date was 1 to 30 days before the As Of date.
- 31–60 Days — 31 to 60 days overdue, and so on.
If an invoice does not have a due date set, it is treated as current.
