Aging of Customer Opening Balances

edited Jun 2, 2025 2:44PM in Ask A Guru 10 comments

I am doing a fresh implementation of NetSuite at our company (they have been using NetSuite for 5 years, but NetSuite Professional Services screwed up and failed the initial implementation twice 5 years ago, and they had a consultant come in to try to rehabilitate the second failure, but the state of the system was still so poor when I cam in, I had to recommend a fresh start).
