Older Than Date / Older Than # of Days

The Older Than Date / Older Than # of Days field on the AR Automatic Write-Off form.

If you selected the Use Older Than Date radio option, this field displays as "Older Than Date". Enter the date to use in determining transactions to include in the write-off process. The system includes only those transactions with a date prior to this date.

If you selected the Use Days Older Than radio option, this field displays as "Older Than # of Days". Enter the number of days by which to calculate the "older than date". The system subtracts the number of days specified here from the current date to determine the “older than date”. For example, if you enter 60 days, and the current date is 08/01/08, the “older than date” defaults as 06/02/2008. This date is compared to 'I' (Invoice) type transactions only when determining which transactions should apply to this write-off process.

Note: If you enter a date in the Start Date field, the system uses the "older than date" (specified or calculated) in conjunction with the Start Date to determine transactions to include in the write-off process. For more information, see the Start Date F1 Help.
