Overview

The Print Statements button is located in the Payments module.

This button allows you to print Customer Statements for All customers, or a Filtered criteria of Customers. You have the ability to Auto Send statements to customers, using their Default Contact Method (email, FAX or Print). You can also choose a contact method, i.e. email, fax, print, upon selecting the Customer/s you are sending statements to. Print_Statements allows the user to process the Weekly, Fortnightly, or Monthly statement runs with ease, all from the one screen. Customised Statement templates can be created, allowing the user to insert Company logos to maintain their professional image.

There are a number of statement templates available to cover the broad range of requirements for different business types. You should spend some time familiarising yourself with the different templates before deciding which is most appropriate for your business.

How to Print Statements

  • Select  the Payments module
  • Select Print Statements button - Within the Print Statements screen there are two tabs, General and Options

  included on statements including Sales Orders, Invoice Back Orders and Sales Order Back Orders. Underneath is

  the option to include Paid Invoices E.g. Invoices raised and paid in the date range

  • Select whether you want statements to be based on the Sales Date or Due Date. Selecting Due Date effectively

  means that only overdue invoices will be shown on the statement

  • Select the order for invocies to be displayed on the statement E.G Days Outstanding
  • Select General tab
  • Select the Statement Date - this is the effective date of all calculations (eg. days overdue)
  • Select a Department or tick All departments
  • Select a Date Range - invoices prior to the date range will not be displayed individually but instead will be summarised

  as an opening balance

  • If you want to send to specific customers only, you can Select from the list displayed, Search by Name or Create a Filter
  • Select the Group Jobs With Customer check box if you want all jobs for a customer grouped on a single statement
  • Select Show Customers with a zero Balance check box if you want statements issued to all customers
  • Select All button selects all of the customers displayed in the list
  • To Select Multiple customers from the list hold down the Ctrl Key and Select each customer as required

N.B. You should only do this for single or very small print runs as every statement will display individually and require your confirmation to print.
