This screen allows the user to search for and locate Sales invoices based on their due date. 

NOTE TO CHECK: There appears to be a minor bug here as if the Invoice 'Due Date' is different to the Invoice Date (eg. Invoice Creation Date) then the Invoice Date is used as the Due Date in this screen which I dont think is correct..... Need to do more testing on this.....

A Sales Invoice may be due to be paid immediately or as in some cases the customer is given a 'grace period' after which the invoice is generated and becomes due. Examples of this include allowing customers 30 days to pay or when an invoice is due for payment on a fixed date per monthonly generating a customer invoice after a certain amount of time after the dispatch of their order. (NOTE: There are several ways this can be achieved in OFBiz including the use of agreements and billing accounts).

What is it used for?

It is can be used to locate Sales Invoices that may be overdue??? (TO CHECK).as follows:

  • That will become due within a fixed timeframe (eg the next 5 days)
  • That may already be overdue
  • That have been automatically generated by the system (eg as a result of Agreements based on payment in 30 days etc....TO CHECK)

NOTE: See details from Jacopo below regarding future work regarding Find Sales Invoice by Due Date and Find Purchase Invoice by Due Date functionality:
