What the buckets actually mean
An aging report groups everything customers owe you into buckets by how overdue it is — typically not-due, 0-30, 31-60, 61-90 and 90+ days.
The total owed matters less than the shape of the buckets: a large 90+ bucket is a warning sign even if your total receivables number looks healthy.
Reading it as an early-warning system
The report becomes useful the moment you check it weekly instead of at month-end — a customer sliding from 0-30 into 31-60 is exactly when a follow-up call is cheap and effective, before it becomes a write-off conversation.
LedgrBook builds this report from the same invoices and payments you already record, so there's no separate spreadsheet to keep current.
