Introduction

The Interest on Overdue Invoice module enables businesses to automatically calculate and apply penalty interest to invoices that are not paid by their due date.

Key Features

  • Define penalty interest rates (daily, monthly, or yearly) linked to specific payment terms.

  • Automatically compute and append interest lines to overdue invoices.

  • Generate corresponding journal entries to reflect interest income accurately.

  • Support audit-worthy tracking of interest events tied to invoice due dates.

  • Offer flexibility in configuring triggers, such as grace periods or interest-free windows.

Benefits
