Client / Supplier Statement


Article summary

Each Contact, depending on its Type, has two options available: Client Statement or Supplier Statement. With these two options you can progressively view the transactions registered in Elorus, as well as the total balance you owe or they own you.

In cases where a Contact is both Client and Supplier, the two buttons described above appear. This allows you to see the balance for sales and expenses separately.
Contacts: Client & Supplier statement dropdown

Client statement

A Client statement contains all the records (Invoices, Credit notes, Payments Received) registered to the Contact. You can send the statement to the client directly via email. To view the Client statement open the Contact through menu Contacts and click the button located at the top right of the page.

If you issue Invoices to a client in multiple currencies, each currency forms a separate table on the statement, in this case US Dollar Vs Canadian Dollar.

Once you hit Update report, Elorus will create a table with all the documents and payments related to the Contact. Sums of charges, credits as well as total balance can be found at the bottom line of the table.

Elorus displays results for the values in different tables for each currency (if multiple). In the image above, we see the "GB Pound (GBP)" currency tab. The "Canadian dollar (CAD)" is the second currency. Transactions made in CAD can be viewed by one click on the currency name tab.
