Managing invoices and tracking receivables are important tasks for small and medium-sized businesses. Manual processes or disconnected systems often lead to delays in collections, reporting errors, and limited visibility into financial activity. Averiware’s Accounting and Financial Management module addresses these challenges by providing structured accounts receivable statements and invoice management within a unified business system.
Averiware includes a complete Accounts Receivable framework designed to record, monitor, and report customer transactions efficiently. Invoices can be generated directly from packing slips with a single click, allowing sales and shipping activities to move smoothly into billing. This automated link between shipping documents and invoices helps maintain data accuracy while reducing administrative steps for finance teams.
Businesses can manage multiple customer locations with unlimited ship-to addresses. This feature is useful for companies serving customers with several branches or delivery points. When invoices are created, the system records the correct location details and links them to the appropriate customer account for accurate billing and reporting.
Sales tax management is handled through a comprehensive tax rules engine. State, county, city, and ZIP-code-based tax rates are supported, allowing businesses to apply the correct tax rules during invoicing. Customer-specific tax exemptions and exceptions can also be configured. This structured tax setup helps organizations maintain compliance while reducing manual tax calculations.
Averiware also supports credit memo processing for product returns or billing adjustments. If a customer returns goods or if corrections are required, credit memos can be issued and applied to the relevant account. Returned check processing is also included, enabling finance teams to record and track reversed payments while maintaining accurate account balances.
For businesses that collect deposits or advance payments, Averiware provides advance payment processing. Payments received before invoicing can be automatically applied when the invoice is generated. This ensures that customer balances are updated correctly without additional reconciliation work.
Automated freight charge calculations can be included during invoice creation. This feature allows shipping costs to be recorded alongside product charges, giving customers clear and complete invoice details. The system also supports multiple General Ledger control accounts, allowing businesses to organize financial records according to their accounting structure.
Accounts receivable statements and customer lists can be generated using user-defined ageing rules. Finance teams can review outstanding invoices based on aging categories such as 30, 60, or 90 days. These statements help businesses monitor unpaid balances and follow up with customers when payments are overdue.
Collection analysis reports are also available to review unpaid invoices and payment patterns. With over forty standard financial reports and the ability to define customized versions, businesses can review receivable performance, monitor cash flow activity, and prepare documentation for auditing and operational reviews.
By integrating invoicing, receivable tracking, and reporting within one system, Averiware helps small and medium-sized businesses maintain accurate financial records while improving billing and collections management.
