There are seven preset types of reports of outstanding items:

1. Outstanding items due date _____ (debt collection of UNPAID outstanding items that are due) - It enables you to create a report of outstanding items restricted by documents that were due on some definite date in the past and still have not been paid. So it enables you to restrict debt collection of outstanding items by documents that are already due and have not been paid yet.
   
2. State of the outstanding items (bank reconciliation) - This is the most often used report type. It is designated for displaying of ALL outstanding items regardless of documents and payments due. It is used in bank reconciliation when you want to establish what documents still have not been paid.
   
3. Outstanding items on _____ (consolidation of the state of outstanding items with the subject) - This report type gives information on what was the state of ALL outstsanding items on a certain definite past day, e.g. on the last date of the previous month.
   
4. State of due outstanding items on  _____ in the past (the report of ALL due outstanding items) - The report gives information on what was the state of DUE outstanding items on a certain definite past day. Payments after the entered date WILL NOT be included in the overview.
   
5. List of documents issued from _____ to _____ and paid till _____ (analysis of outstanding items by document date and payment date) - Validation report giving information on what documents issued in the selected date period still have not been paid on a definite past day.
   
6. Optional report of outstanding items - It considers all posts to establish the state of outstanding items (see Journal entry items ) that by date criteria belong to the selected period. Post is every payment and every posted receivable or payeble. In this type of report it is recommended that you enter only end due date, document date and/or posting date (date to) as criteria because this report was devised for establishing of actual outstanding items and of possible documents and payments that have been closed irregularly.
   
7. Optional payment analysis by documents - It considers all documents to establish the state of outstanding items, ki po datumskih kriterijih sodijo v izbrano obdobje. This type of report can be used in more complex analysis of outstanding items that first depend on issued documents and later on the subsequent payments.
   

If you create an optional outstanding items report WITHOUT restricted date criteria and the optional payment analysis by documents state is different with the same criteria, then this is the consequence of an error in the closing of documents or you have a posted payment, for which the document had not been posted yet. 

If the overview is displayed with date restriction, then the difference are consequences of invoices that are posted with different due dates.
