Sales Register report

The Sales Register report displays the invoices you sent to customers in the specified time period, and any account adjustments that were entered. Each transaction that's listed shows the date, customer ID and name, invoice or adjustment number, due date, description (if any), amount, and amount paid.

Using the report, you can:

  • View invoices and adjustments
  • See the payment details for invoices, including the payment method and date
  • See credit details, including which invoices a particular adjustment was applied to
  • See subtotals of invoice amounts by customer or location

In the HTML view, the dates in the date column are links that enable you to drill down to the corresponding transaction.

For information on terms that may differ in your location, see Terminology across locales.

To generate this report, go to Accounts Receivable > All > Reports > Registers > Sales.
