What is customer statement?

A customer statement is a summary of all transactions between you and a customer over a period — showing invoices issued, payments received, credit notes applied, and the outstanding balance. Sending statements monthly is one of the most effective ways to accelerate collections and reduce debtor days.

How it works

Enter the customer and your business details, set the statement period, add transaction lines (invoice, payment, credit note), and the tool calculates the running balance and outstanding amount. Export a professional PDF to send to your customer.

Why it matters

Regular statements remind customers of outstanding balances without confrontation. They're the single most effective collections tool for SMEs.

Common mistakes

Not sending statements until debt is very overdue — send monthly
Missing credit notes — customers will dispute statements with errors immediately

Best practices

Send statements at the end of every month
Include a remittance slip so customers can reference what they're paying
