Re: AR Aging

R6 offers the feature you're looking for. I realize it doesn't help you at
R5, but it's there in R6 now. Below is a list of enhancements at R6 for the
AM Financials Suite. If you have AM Plus, you can get the improved aging
through browser at R4 or R5 now.

R6 Base Application enhancements:
Accounts Payable
·    Default the Invoice due date based on vendor terms
·    Default Expense Account from Vendor master file
·    Recurring Payables Processing

Accounts Receivable
·    Aged Receivable Report enhanced to allow aging by
o    Invoice Date
o    Due Date
o    Age Date

General Ledger
·    Recurring Journal Entries
·    Reversing Journal Entries
·    Reduce Audit Posted Journal Requirements
·    New Trial Balance Report with Option to Suppress Zero-Balance Accounts

We are running XA 5.

We have several customers that have extended terms (60 days). However, when
MAPICS ages the open AR, it ignores the terms code (verified by support
line
this morning). So, when a customer does not pay within 90 days of the
aging/invoice date, but has credit terms to 60 days, MAPICS puts that
invoice in the past 90 column on the aging report. However, the customer is
only 30 days past due because of the extended aging.

MAPICS says that they will look at terms in XA 6. However, that does not
help me now.

I have to think that someone out there is aging invoices greater than 30
days. How have you solved the aging problem I have described above?
