Free Customer Credit Tracker (Excel, KES): credit limits and ageing analysis

Giving credit is how wholesalers win customers, and how they go under when it is not controlled. This free credit tracker keeps it safe: give each customer a limit, log every credit sale and every payment, and it works out each balance and splits it into an ageing analysis, current, 1-30, 31-60, 61-90 and 90-plus days overdue against today.

On Customers, set each credit limit and their balance, 90-plus overdue amount and a status flag fill in on their own. On Invoices, log each credit sale with its due date and any amount paid, and the outstanding, days overdue and ageing bucket work themselves out. On Payments, keep your receipt history as money comes in.

The Ageing Analysis splits every balance by how overdue it is, and anyone over their limit or with 90-plus overdue is flagged red so you act before a debt goes bad. Yellow cells are your only inputs. The premium version adds an ageing dashboard with bars and a printable A4 statement of account per customer. Opens in Excel, WPS or Google Sheets.

Frequently asked questions

Is the basic version free?

Yes. The basic credit tracker is free to download and keep. The premium upgrade, with an ageing dashboard and a printable statement of account, is an optional KES 500.

How is the ageing worked out?

Each invoice has a due date, and the sheet compares it against today. The outstanding amount is placed in current, 1-30, 31-60, 61-90 or 90-plus days overdue, so you see at a glance which debts are getting old.

Does it warn me when a customer goes over their limit?

Yes. When a customer's balance owed passes the credit limit you set, their balance and status turn red, and any 90-plus overdue amount is flagged too, so you can hold further credit until they pay down.
