Report showing average time taken to pay invoices by customer

There is a standard Sage report that almost does what I want, but it lists each transaction (so each line on the invoice). I want one line per invoice. I've found two online: One at my.sage.co.uk/.../report-design-service.aspx called sage_report_scvrl4.001 - from the PDF, it looks exactly like what I want, but when you click the link to get it you start navigating through the help system from scratch. Another at my.sage.co.uk/.../a26fee2f-6d59-4b5a-8a3a-c02399a6633a called ACDL9.REPORT - again, exactly what I'm looking for. But when I download it and try to install it, I'm told my software is too old. Can you point me in the right direction please. Thanks in advance, Alison
  • Hi Alison,

  • Hi Alison,

    Our Report Design team have advised that the report can be copied into Sage 50 Accounts 2011 (v17) and above. Any earlier versions of the program have completed the software lifecycle and no longer qualify for support.

     

    To copy the report file (ACCDL9.report) into the program, double click the downloaded file, which will open in the Report Designer asking for a username and password – these are the login details you use for Sage.

     

    Go to File > Save As > leave the settings as they are and Save. The report is called ‘Average Days to Pay Sales Invoices’ and it will automatically save into the My Customer Reports folder in Customers > Reports.

     

    If you require further assistance with this you can contact our Report Design team directly on 0845 111 5555, at [email protected] or via web chat between 9am and 5pm.

    Regards,

  • Thanks. I feel a bit dim now, but it was the instruction to "restore" on the original page that confused me. Now I know just to double-click and Save I'm sure it will be fine as my software version is recent.
