Solved! Go to Solution.
Help has arrived, @Maverick2. I want to make sure you’ll be able to sort out this issue with the zero balance in your Accounts Receivable Aging report in QuickBooks Desktop.
When running the report, ensure that it's modified according to date. This way, it will show the customers' account balances, and we can identify which have active payables as of today and the number of days they have been outstanding.
Here’s how:
Otherwise, users may experience discrepancies in their company files as a result of data damage. You can use the Verify and Rebuild tools to get this resolved. Also, please ensure that your QuickBooks Desktop is updated.

I figured it out. The customer actually did have an outstanding invoice but an equal credit, ergo net zero.
I always use the A/R Detail report... takes a million years to load, but then it shows you every single item.
Click in any invoice line, and it opens that transaction, so you can apply the credit.
I actually export the list to excel so that the report doesn't try to refresh after I've applied a credit. I just have excel on one monitor, and QB on the other, and just run down the customer list, applying Credits, charging cards on file, or sending statements. Makes collections a breeze.
IMO - The AR summary is really only useful for Financial Statements, or when I need aging totals for A/R indebtedness reservation calc.
