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.

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):

BucketMeaning
CurrentNot yet past due
1–30 / 31–60 / 61–90Days 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.

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.

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.

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.

A/R Reports is available to owner, admin, and accountant roles.
