Sending statement reminders

You can send reminder statements and invoices to debtors who have not paid. Statement reminders are an exact duplicate of the original statement with a different underlay file if you have defined one. Synergetic treats reminders as a separate statement run so you can easily track the history. Synergetic supports:

• up to three reminder levels
• separate PDF underlay files for each reminder level
• separate PDF underlay files for reminder statements and invoices.

The PDF underlay files are managed in the Sub Ledgers sub-tab of the Debtors tab of Finance Configuration Maintenance. See Synergetic Financial Configuration - Debtors tab - Sub Ledgers sub-tab in the Finance manual.

Note: Reminders are not generated for any debtors that have appeared in a statement run dated after the one you have selected, even if they have not paid the statement in full. You can select to add these debtors to a tag list instead.
