Outstanding & Ageing

Outstanding is the total money parties still owe you. Ageing sorts that money by how old each unpaid bill is, for example 0 to 15 days, 16 to 30 days and over 30 days, so you can see which dues are late and chase the oldest first.
Detailed Explanation & Statutory Rules
The longer a freight bill stays unpaid, the harder it is to collect, so ageing turns one big number into a to-do list. The buckets are your choice and usually follow your credit terms: if the agreement is 30 days, anything past 30 days is overdue. Ageing is only as good as the data under it: record each payment against the right bill, and keep the POD, because an unpaid bill with no POD is a bill the party can dispute. Review it weekly, start with the oldest and largest dues, and decide when to stop booking new loads for a party whose dues keep ageing. Bilty's party outstanding view shows dues per party and by age, built from the bills and receipts you record.
Practical Indian Freight Example
"A broker's total outstanding is ₹6,40,000. Ageing shows ₹2,10,000 in 0 to 15 days, ₹1,80,000 in 16 to 30 days and ₹2,50,000 over 30 days, of which ₹1,70,000 is one party. The broker calls that party first, sends its statement, and holds new bookings until it pays part."
