    Christine,

    Check the payment terms setup. It sounds like it is actually set to 20. Go to Tools, Setup, Company, Payment Terms Setup and you should get a window similar to the one below. Select the Net 30 terms and make sure it has 30 in the field circled.

      Thank you so much for your response and helping to get this resolved.

      It is appreciated with the screen print as well!

      This must have been the reason as Net 30 was set up as Add Day Net 20.

      I have changed this in our system.

        Hi Elainine,

        For the Payables Management Setup – Aged Periods in Payables,

        Could you please a little better than Help contents. If possible an example of how works by invoice date and due dates for aging and Apply By document Date or Due Date. What is the best practice.

        Iam trying to get a better understanding of how it works.

        Thank you,

          Hey Christine,

          There really isn’t a best practice around the two Payables setup options you’re asking about. It’s really what works best for you company. That said, here is a little information on the settings:

          Age By Invoice Date vs Due Date – Example you have an invoice with Invoice date of 6/1/2024 and and Due Date of 6/15/2024. When you run your aging at 7/1/2024, if you age by invoice date your in will be 31 days old so it will fall into the 30-60 days old bucket. If you age by Due Date your invoice will be 16 days old so it will stay in the current bucket.

          For Apply By if you let the system auto apply credits or payment, the credits/payments will be applied to the oldest documents first. So if you have Invoice A with an invoice date of 7/1/24 and a due date of 7/15/24 then Invoice B with an invoice date of 7/2/24 and a due date of 7/14/24 – If you apply by doc date payments/credits will apply to Invoice A first. If you apply by due date payments/credits would apply to Invoice B first.

          Hope that helps.
