The WIP/AR Aging report shows accumulated WIP and AR in up to seven user-defined aging intervals. This report can be used to determine how much unbilled WIP and AR have accumulated for each client.
Two versions of the report are available.
- The standard version allows for extensive customization, filtering, and grouping, but can take a while to generate. You can also add a cover page to this version of the report.
- The optimized version generates quickly, but offers fewer customization options. Basic report options are preset based on common use of the report and cannot be changed. There are also fewer grouping and filtering options than in the standard report. You can identify this version by the word Optimized in the Type column.
The sections below describe the options available in this report.
