Reading the report
Age the remainder, not the original invoice total
An aging report groups open invoices by days after the due date: current, 1–30, 31–60, 61–90, and over 90. It uses the remaining balance after payments, not the original total. Due today is not overdue. Over 90 days is the oldest bucket in the report, not a court finding or a credit score. The collections guide covers what to do after the number; this page covers how to read the number.

What each bucket means
| Bucket | Fawtar’s rule | What it is not |
|---|---|---|
| Current | Not yet due, or due on the report date. | Not a promise the customer will pay on time. |
| 1–30 days | From the day after due date. | Not a late fee. |
| 31–90 days | The 31–60 and 61–90 buckets. | Not a lawsuit. |
| Over 90 | The longest delay in the report. | Not a write-off and not a credit score. |
This is not DSO research
We do not publish a market average of days sales outstanding. Any figure from the calculator belongs to the invoices you typed in this session, or to your workspace invoices on Pro.
After the number comes follow-up
The collections queue, expected payment date, and reminder messages are a separate operational path. Aging shows where the balance sits; it does not send the reminder for you.
What Fawtar does here
The public calculator does not send customer names to the server. The Pro report groups remaining balances from issued invoices by customer, and keeps undated invoices in their own column so they are not mis-bucketed.

Short questions
Is an invoice due today overdue?
No. It stays current. Counting starts the next day.
Does over 90 days mean the debt is bad?
No. It is a bucket in a report. A write-off is a separate accounting decision.
