The Creditors / Debtors report provides an overview of outstanding balances across your customers, suppliers, and general ledgers. It helps you identify amounts payable or receivable, review customer advances, and understand your store's overall credit and debit position.

You can search for specific ledgers, filter balances by category, include or exclude general ledgers, and export the report with your preferred columns and sorting options.
