# Accounts Receivable

The accounts receivable (AR) report shows what your customers owe you. It tracks outstanding AIA invoices, how long they have been unpaid, and how much retainage is being held back. Use it to follow up on late payments and forecast incoming cash.

## How It Works

The AR report pulls from your submitted AIA bills to show:

* **Outstanding Invoices** -- AIA bills that have been sent but not yet paid.
* **Aging Buckets** -- how long each invoice has been outstanding (Current, 30 days, 60 days, 90+ days). Old invoices need follow-up.
* **Retainage Held** -- the total retainage being held by each customer across all projects. This is money you have earned but will not receive until the job is complete.
* **Customer Totals** -- the total amount owed by each customer, including retainage.

## Steps

1. Go to **Reports** and select **Accounts Receivable**.
2. Set the **As-of Date**.
3. Optionally filter by **Customer** or **Project**.
4. Click **Generate**.
5. Review the report:
   * **Aging summary** at the top shows totals by bucket (Current, 30, 60, 90+).
   * **Detail section** lists each invoice with the customer, project, application number, date, amount, and aging.
   * **Retainage summary** shows the total retainage held by each customer, broken out by project.
6. Use the aging detail to follow up with customers on overdue invoices.
7. Click **Export** to download as a PDF or spreadsheet.
