Outstanding balances

Who owes what, how long it has been owed, and which arrears to work first.

Run the report

  1. Open it

    Go to Reports → Financial reports → Outstanding balances.

  2. Filter to your buildings

    Then sort by age rather than by amount.

  3. Work the oldest first

    Age, not size, is what predicts whether a balance will ever be collected.

What it counts

Unpaid amounts on approved invoices, by tenant and lease, aged by how long they have been outstanding. Drafts are excluded — an invoice nobody approved is not a debt.

AgeWhat it usually means
Under 30 daysOrdinary payment timing
30 to 60 daysFollow up; something is being avoided
Over 60 daysTreat as a case, not a reminder

The trap

Payments settle the oldest invoice first, so a tenant paying every month can still carry an old unpaid balance forward indefinitely. The age column is what exposes that — the total alone does not.

A tenant with both a balance owing and a credit balance is a settlement nobody completed. Clear those pairs first.
