Mailing open invoices to the customer

By | September 26, 2023

In Sage 300 ERP, an open invoice, also known as an unpaid invoice, is one that a vendor has sent to a client but has not yet received payment for. The customer adds the outstanding invoice to their aged accounts payable records up until it is paid. The conditions of the contract between the two businesses payment obligations determine how long it takes for an invoice to transition from open to closed.

As you can see in the above screenshot user will be able to specify ‘From’ and ‘To’ Invoice Date, Customer Number and Document Type. Based on the same, the report will generate required data in Excel format and the same file will be added as an attachment while sending mail to customer.

User needs to configure mailing details such as from email ID, mail server, port no, etc. in Company Profile screen of common services which will be used for sending mails to the customer. After selecting the appropriate input, once you click on the “Send Mail” button, a mail will be sent to customer with the below attachment and predefined body set in correspondence with that customer.

Below is the excel-based generated output of the “Open Invoices” and will be attached in the mail: –
