Accounts receivable balance report

Requirement

The provision of a trial balance report over accounts receivable balances, by an accounting system, is commonly required.

In this country, no specific layout is required by law for printing balances out of the accounts receivable ledger. Internal financial control practices include reconciling a balance in the general ledger with the customer details from the accounts receivable ledger.

A normal layout shows all open invoices, credits, and on account payments at a certain date.
