Aged Payables vs Aged Creditors
Two regional names for the report of amounts owed to suppliers, grouped by how long each amount has been outstanding.
Aged Payables is the US term and Aged Creditors is the UK and Australian term. Both reports group amounts currently owed to suppliers into periods such as current, 30 days, 60 days, and 90+ days.
This is usually an aged-open-items view. It shows what remains unpaid and excludes invoices that have already been paid.
Before treating an invoice as missing, check whether you are looking only at aged open items. Use the full-activity ledger when you need to confirm whether the invoice was paid or was never entered.
