    What is aged receivables?

    Aged receivables is a report that groups what customers owe by how late it is.

    Typical columns are current, 1 to 30 days, 31 to 60 days, 61 to 90 days and over 90 days. The older a debt gets, the harder it usually is to collect.

    Example

    A report showing $3,000 current and $1,200 over 60 days tells you where to focus.

    In Australia

    Xero and QuickBooks both have an aged receivables report built in.
