The Statements and Past Due Notices Report is accessed from the WinTeam AR: Reports menu. The Statements and Past Due Notices are used to print statements and past due notices for customers. You can include a message that prints on all statements and/or past due notices.

Key Functionality
The Type of Report defaults from the selection made in AR: Defaults.
The Invoice Statement Form Type shows all activity by invoice.Normally, if this Type of Report is selected you would also enter Transaction Dates. If you do not enter a transaction date range, each invoice that was billed to the customer will be included on the statement showing all payments/adjustments that have been made on that particular invoice. Typically clients will want to indicate a range of transaction dates so that the amount owed for each invoice begins with the Balance owed of the invoice as of the Transaction Date “From” that is entered. Based on the Transaction Dates entered, the system will print all payments and adjustments that were made on the invoice during that time frame. You are not required to select Transaction Dates; however, if you do not enter Transaction Dates, the system will display a warning.
Click Yes if you want to run Statements for all Transaction Dates.
Click No to return to the options screen and enter Transaction Dates.
The Transactions Statement Form Type shows all activity by date of transaction, including all Payments, Invoices and Adjustments that were made during the time period. Typically when printing this type of statement, you will be entering a Transaction Date range. If you do not, you will receive a message. If a transaction date is entered, a Balance Forward amount will be printed first showing the total owed prior to the Transaction From Date.
The Preprinted Statement Form Type shows outstanding invoices only. You can use the Transaction Dates Category record to filter for those invoices within that date range that does not have a paid status. If a transaction date is entered, a Balance Forward amount will printed on the first line showing the total owed prior to the Transaction From Date. The statement will always include any invoice that does not have a paid status. Use this form type if you have preprinted forms that have the boxes, etc. printed on them.
