FAR610 – Aged Receivables

This batch report produces either a detailed or a summary aged receivables report to provide information on customer balances. Usually, balances fall into several groups (i.e., current through 30 days overdue, 30-60 days overdue, 60-90 days overdue, 90-120 days overdue, and more than 120 days overdue). It also produces customer statements. The application is specific to a single subsystem or multiple subsystems and includes/excludes unapplied credits. Also, you can control and change the number of days within each grouping at any time.

 

FAR610 will show the accumulated effect of transactions processed on AR and PPL accounts, by module. This is very important It can be run only for customers who have balances over a specified period.

 

This report is not normally run for a single account. It can however be run for a unique PPL and AR pair (given the proper select criteria). The user can then verify that Personify360 AR balances tie to the GL account balance for the account pair. If FAR610 is run for a single AR account without the associated PPL account, it could yield some unexpected results.

 

FAR610 uses only base (organization) currency and there is no way to have statements show in another currency.

To increase performance, you should consider setting the "MAXIMUMRECORDSTOPROCESSFORFAR610" application parameter, which limits the number of records processed by FAR610.

Running FAR610 when you have scheduled payments

If you are using FAR610 for collection purposes and, therefore, do not want to see scheduled payments until the due date, set the Aging Method parameter to "Due Date". When you are comparing the aged receivables to your GL (or to FAR505 or FAR504) and using it for reconciliation purposes, set the Aging Method parameter to "Invoice Date". This will show the entire amount in AR regardless of the due date. For example, you have an active order line with $120 due, nothing paid and 4 scheduled payments, of $30 each, on 1/1, 4/1, 7/1 and 10/1. If you run FAR610 with an end date of 1/31 and the Aging Method parameter set to "Due Date", it will show $30. If you run FAR610 with an end date of 1/31/2005 and the Aging Method parameter set to "Invoice Date", it will show $120. Also, $120 will have hit the AR account.

This report will include the records where current order balance is zero but have any future balance even if the “Print Order with Zero Balance” parameter is set to “N”. This also will be the case for the “Print Customer with 0 Balance” parameter.

Additional parameters were added in the 7.2.1 release to accommodate Address Change Service functionality. Please see Address Change Service for more information.

Running FAR610 to Reconcile AR/PPL with FAR505

If you run FAR610 to reconcile AR/PPL balances with balances reported on FAR505 and the balances on FAR505 and FAR610 do not match, make sure to set the Print Customer with Zero Balance and Print Orders with Zero Balance parameters to "Y" to include all AR transactions; FAR505 and FAR610 should balance. When either of these parameters on FAR610 are set to "N", FAR505 and FAR610 may NOT match. The reason is that these two parameters exclude orders, order lines, and transactions when the total nets to zero. So within an order, there may be order lines that have an AR debit balance and an AR credit balance, but those transactions are not included in the FAR610 run because the parameters are set to exclude.
