This process is used to change an invoice to another accounting period. For example, an invoice that is due in May can be re-aged to July to give the customer additional time to pay. The amount will then not appear on the overdue collection reports until the new due date comes into effect. Another example of the use of the Re-aging facility is when a customer requests delivery on the last day of the month but wants the invoice to reflect in the next month.
An audit trail is produced for any changes made to invoice due dates.
