Accounts receivable
Overview
Accounts receivable refers to the money owed to a company by its clients for products or services that have been delivered but have yet to be paid for by the clients.
Some of the document types used in accounts receivable are:
- Invoice - a request for payment that lists the products or services the company delivered and the amount due.
- Quote - a formal offer that details how much the products or services will cost before the client commits to a purchase.
- Credit note - reduces the amount due on an invoice.
- Delivery note - a document that a accompanies a shipment of goods. It lists the products and quantity of the goods included in the delivery.
