What is the Outstanding Invoices field?

Posted on by 70

Hello. 

We are trying to determine where the number comes from that populates the Oustanding Invoices field in the Customer Statistics window.  Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

    Hi,

    ... got me curious: the field "Outstanding Invoices (LCY)" is the sum of all unposted sales invoices this customer will get. It is defined as a flowfield in the customer table. There is a second field for service invoices. And there are the outstanding orders and service orders. In other words: no valuable information, except for credit limit checking.

    with best regards

    Jens

    Correction.  Overdue Amounts is only showing past due, although it includes invoices due today, but that is for another day.  So, it appears the only thing that is still in question is the use for Outstanding Invoices.  Of course, now that I am confident Overdue Amounts is working, I can use Balance and Overdue Amounts to work the account...I am still curious to know if anyone knows what Oustanding Invoices does, though.  It's no longer a need, just a curiosity.  Thank you.

    @Lewis.  We are using NAV 6.0.  We also have Outstanding Orders and it does reflect orders not yet shipped.  We have one called Overdue Amounts and that shows all unpaid invoices, not just invoices that are past due.  I would think that Overdue Amounts should just show invoice amounts that are past due and Outstanding Invoices should show the total amounts of all invoices no matter if they are overdue or not.  Ours does not appear to work this way, so I was just curious if anyone else had any feedback.  Thanks very much for your response, Lewis!

    What version of NAV?  On NAV 4, I do not see that field, but we have OUTSTANDING ORDERS.  My assumption would be that OUTSTANDING INVOICES would be invoices (or amount) not yet paid
