Finalised Date Age Analysis Report: Settings and Parameters

The Finalised Date Age Analysis is a report which indicates all the amounts that are still outstanding or have not been paid yet, after the Hospital Case has been finalised. The data that appears on the report will be determined by the Settings and Parameters that the user has set up and selected when the Report was set up. For example, data available on the report includes: Total and Current outstanding amounts for Patient and Medical Aid over different time periods such as 30, 60, and 90 days etc. 

Settings and Parameters are factors that will be taken into consideration to determine what information and data will be generated on a report. Settings and Parameters allow the user to customise the information that appears on the report to their specific needs.
