The Customer Ledger shows the complete transaction history for one customer — every invoice, credit note, and payment — and their current outstanding balance.
Steps to Access the Ledger
- Go to Contacts → Customers.
- Click on the customer's name (or the eye icon) to open their profile.
- Click the Ledger tab.
Reading the Ledger
- Opening Balance: The balance carried over from before the first recorded transaction.
- Debit Column (Invoice): Each sale increases the amount owed by this customer.
- Credit Column (Payment): Each payment reduces the balance.
- Running Balance: The current amount this customer owes you at any point in time.
Exporting the Ledger
- Use the Date Range filter to narrow the period.
- Click Export to PDF or Export to Excel to share the statement with the customer.
📌 Note:Giving a customer a Statement of Account (their ledger exported as PDF) is a common and professional practice for month-end reconciliation.
