A/R Reports
Accounts Receivable Reports (Accounting ▸ A/R Reports) show what your clients owe the firm and which recoverable costs you’ve carried but not yet billed. It has three tabs.
A/R Aging
Section titled “A/R Aging”Every issued invoice with an open balance, bucketed by how far past its due date it is (or its issue date when none is set):
| Bucket | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Current | Not yet past due |
| 1–30 / 31–60 / 61–90 | Days past due |
| 90+ | Seriously overdue — prioritize collection |
Each row shows the invoice number, the client, the matter, the due date, the age bucket, and the outstanding balance; the footer totals every bucket. A balance leaves this report when its invoice is fully paid or voided.
Client Balances
Section titled “Client Balances”A summary ledger: total open A/R per client, rolled up across all of that client’s issued and partially-paid invoices, with an open-invoice count. Invoices with no recorded bill-to client roll up under a single Unassigned row. Use this for “who owes us the most”; use A/R Aging for per-invoice detail.
Unbilled Recoverable
Section titled “Unbilled Recoverable”Recoverable client costs incurred on a matter but not yet billed:
- Hard costs — cash you advanced for the client; they sit in the 1210 Client Disbursements Recoverable asset until billed, then clear into A/R. The total ties to your 1210 balance.
- Soft costs — in-house charges (photocopies, printing) with no general-ledger entry until billed; they appear here purely as a billable worklist.
For the full general-ledger treatment of hard vs. soft costs, the tax charged on recovery, and Input Tax Credits, see Disbursements accounting.
How A/R relates to A/P
Section titled “How A/R relates to A/P”A recoverable hard cost has a lifecycle that spans both sides of the ledger: it starts as a payable (you owe a vendor), becomes a recoverable asset (1210) when you pay, and finally a receivable when you bill the client. That’s why Unbilled Recoverable lives here under A/R, and the A/P Reports page links across to it.
