Debtor statements are used to provide customers with a summary of their account activity and outstanding balances.
This article explains how to print Debtor statements in Jiwa, either for an individual customer account or in bulk for multiple customers. Statements can be used to support customer account enquiries, payment follow-up, credit control, and regular debtor reporting.
Individual Statements
Individual statements can be printed directly from the Debtor Maintenance form.
Load the required Debtor account into your form.
From the menu ribbon select Print | Debtors Maintenance Statement
The statement will be printed to screen.
Bulk Statements
From the menu select Debtors | Statements
To check or change the statement layout click on the Printer Setup icon from the menu ribbon.
From here we can confirm or change which statement report layout is going to be used for the required statement period.
Begin by selecting the required printing order
Set Ranges to restrict which Debtor statements are to be printed by either selecting the from/to Debtors or using the groups filter.
Contact Groups are useful as they can be used to restrict the debtors to be included in the statement print run, for example you may have Debtors belonging to the one or both of the following contact groups;
-
Statement - Print
-
Statement - Email
Refer to our article Jiwa Debtors - Emailing Statements for further details in how contact groups can be used in statement runs.
