AR Past Due Invoice - Case Study & Technical Analysis
Executive Summary
The AR Past Due Invoice report is a targeted collections tool designed to identify and list specific customer invoices that have exceeded their payment terms. Unlike summary aging reports that group debts into time buckets, this report provides a granular, line-item view of delinquent transactions, calculating the exact number of days each invoice is overdue. It is essential for prioritizing collection efforts and improving cash flow.
Business Challenge
Effective cash collection requires knowing exactly which debts are overdue and by how much.
- Prioritization: Collections agents have limited time. They need to know whether to focus on a large invoice that is 5 days late or a smaller one that is 90 days late.
- Precision: When calling a customer, the agent needs specific invoice numbers and dates to dispute excuses and demand payment.
- DSO Management: Reducing Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) requires immediate visibility into invoices as soon as they cross the “due” threshold.
Solution
The AR Past Due Invoice report empowers the collections team by:
- Exact Aging: Calculating the precise “Days Late” for every open item.
- Segmentation: Allowing filters by “Days Late” (e.g., 1-30 days vs. 60+ days) to drive different dunning strategies (e.g., email reminder vs. phone call).
- Assignment: Filtering by “Collector” to generate personalized worklists for each team member.
Technical Architecture
The report focuses on the payment schedule of open transactions.
Key Tables & Joins
- Schedule:
AR_PAYMENT_SCHEDULES_ALLis the core table. It holds theDUE_DATE,AMOUNT_DUE_REMAINING, andSTATUS. - Transaction Header:
RA_CUSTOMER_TRX_ALLprovides the invoice number and original transaction details. - Customer:
HZ_PARTIESandHZ_CUST_ACCOUNTSidentify the debtor. - Collector:
AR_COLLECTORS(linked viaHZ_CUSTOMER_PROFILES) allows the report to be segmented by the assigned agent. - Salesperson:
RA_SALESREPSis included to allow sales teams to assist in collecting from their accounts.
Logic
- Filter: Selects transactions where
STATUS = 'OP'(Open) andAMOUNT_DUE_REMAINING > 0. - Time Check: Filters where
DUE_DATE < :As_Of_Date. - Calculation: \(\text{Days Late} = \text{As Of Date} - \text{Due Date}\)
- Sorting: Typically ordered by Customer and then by Days Late (descending) to highlight the worst offenders.
Parameters
- As of Date: The reference date for calculating lateness (defaults to today).
- Days Late Low / High: Defines the range of delinquency (e.g., Low=31, High=60 for a specific dunning campaign).
- Balance Due Low / High: Filters out small, immaterial balances to focus on high-value debts.
- Collector: Generates the report for a specific agent.
- Customer Name: Targets a specific account for detailed review.
FAQ
Q: Does this report show invoices that are due today?
A: Typically, “Past Due” implies Due Date < As of Date. If an invoice is due today, it is usually not considered past due until tomorrow.
Q: Are disputed invoices included? A: Yes, unless specifically excluded by customization. A disputed invoice is still legally past due until the dispute is resolved or a credit is issued.
Q: What happens if I run this for a past date? A: The report will show what was past due on that date, based on the open balance at that time (if the query logic supports historical “As of” reconstruction, though standard versions often look at current open items relative to a past date).
Oracle E-Business Suite Reporting Library
We provide an open source Oracle EBS SQLs as a part of operational and project implementation support toolkits for rapid Excel reports generation.
Blitz Report™ is based on Oracle EBS forms technology, and hence requires minimal training. There are no data or performance limitations since the output files are created directly from the database without going through intermediate file formats such as XML.
Blitz Report can be used as BI Publisher and Oracle Discoverer replacement tool. Standard Oracle BI Publisher and Discoverer reports can also be imported into Blitz Report for immediate output to Excel. Typically, reports can be created and version tracked within hours instead of days. The concurrent request output automatically opens upon completion without the need for re-formatting.
The Filters, Columns, Rows and Values fields are used to create and deliver the data in pivot table format with full drill down to details.
The Excel template upload functionality in Blitz Report allows users to create their own layouts by uploading an Excel template with additional sheets and charts, automatically refreshed when the report runs again. This allows to create custom dashboards and more advanced visualizations of report data.
You can download and use Blitz Report free of charge for your first 30 reports.
The installation and implementation process usually takes less than 1 hour; you can refer to our installation and user guides for specific details.
