    Note

    The number of days criteria merely determines which clients/matters/consolidations are to be selected for statements.  The statement will include ALL A/R for the clients/matters/consolidations that fall within the range.  The system does not limit the statement to only the A/R balances that exceed the minimum days old as defined by the user. For example, statements are selected for any bill that is 60 days or older.  Client 1000 has an outstanding balance of $1234.56 on bill number 888 that is 60 days old, and also has an outstanding balance of $5678.99 on invoice 999 that is only 30 days old.  The statement selected lists both invoice 888 and 999 showing a total of $6913.55 outstanding.
