Usually, the credit period differs based on relations. Hence, enter the number of days allowed for credit.

Due Date: This column consists of pre-defined formula. Hence, it auto-calculates the due date based on the credit period.

Balance: This column displays the outstanding amount against the invoice. It consists of predefined formula. Hence, it is auto-populated.

Days: Days column displays the number of days passed above the due date. The cell is blank when the invoices are completely paid. Or else it will calculate the number of days.

Remark: Remarks column also consists of a pre-defined formula. It is blank if there is no outstanding. If the days are below the due date it displays “Due”. But, if the days are above the due date, it displays “Aging”.

Furthermore, the template displays the “Due” invoices in green and the “Aging” invoices in red.

Payment Section

Date: Date of payment.

Payment Amount: Amount paid/transferred to the vendor/supplier against the respective invoice. There are 4 payment columns with their respective dates. Hence, you can record partial payments accordingly.
