If you run finance for an Indian business (or a CA firm serving a dozen of them), you know the ageing report. Party-wise, days outstanding, the buckets: 0–30, 31–60, 61–90, 90+. Every month it gets made in Excel. Every month it is a day’s work.

This is how AnalytAI does the same thing in seconds, every day, with no Excel involved.

What “ageing” means in this context

For each party (customer ledger), how much money are they owing you, and how old is each invoice. Buckets help finance prioritise follow-ups: 90+ days is harder to recover than 31–60.

What you need to start

  • Tally Prime or Tally ERP 9 connected to AnalytAI via the plugin.
  • Your customer ledgers correctly grouped under sundry debtors.
  • A definition of “due date”: invoice date + credit terms.

Step 1: Ask, in plain English

In AnalytAI chat, type:

Show me party-wise ageing for all customers as of today, with buckets 0-30, 31-60, 61-90, 91+ days.

AnalytAI’s catalog agent picks the right tables (vouchers, ledgers, parties), the database agent writes the SQL, and the result comes back as a table you can sort and filter.

Step 2: Pin it

If the answer is right, click “pin to dashboard”. The next morning, the dashboard refreshes by itself with the new numbers.

Step 3: Schedule the chase list

Schedule a daily report: “Top 20 customers by 90+ day overdue amount, with last invoice date and contact”. Send to the collections team at 9 am.

This is the loop. No Excel exports, no monthly Sunday at the office.

What if I have multiple Tally companies?

If you are a CA firm, each client is a workspace. Run the same ageing report across all of them, and schedule a consolidated weekly to the partner.

A real example

A pilot manufacturing customer reduced their 90+ day bucket by 23% in two months. Not because the dashboard collected the money, but because the morning report meant the right person was calling the right party at the right time.
