Paid Disbursements Analysis

Print this article

The Paid Disbursement Analysis lists expenses and/or client advances paid during the specified date range.  The original value, billed value, collected value and the value of credits or write offs is shown.  This report can be a very important tool in monitoring write offs and credits of billed disbursements.  Client Advances in particular should be monitored as they represent cash paid out the door by the firm that will not be recovered if the transactions were written off.  If you choose to report on expenses only and choose the Summary by Code option, this report can also be used to reclassify Expense Revenue in the General Ledger.

EXPLANATION OF REPORT INFO/COLUMNS
The Original and Billed columns only reflect items that were paid and not the total billed on the invoice.  The report does not factor in reversals.  If a payment applied to the expenses and/or client advances on an invoice is partial payment of same, the amount applied to the expenses and/or client advances is prorated across all the individual EX and/or CA transactions billed on that invoice.

BALANCING TO OTHER REPORTS
If you run the Paid Disbursement Analysis to include Expenses and Client Advances and use a similar date range, you can balance to the following reports:

Payment Application Analysis – Total Expenses + Costs

Daily Deposit Report (PMT, RAP, TAP) – Total Expenses + Costs
