Family Ledger Report

The Family Ledger Report includes all transactions for all patients in a family during a date range you specify. The report will include the date of treatment, tooth number, description, patient, charges, payments, and a running balance. Total Family Transactions that are calculated include YTD Finance Charges, YTD Late Charges, YTD Family Payments, and YTD Insurance Payments. Also, there is an option to separate out and list Patient Balances at the bottom of the report.

To generate the report

1.   In the Office Manager, click Reports, point to Ledger, and then click Family Ledger.

The Family Ledger Report dialog box appears.

2.   Type the Report Date that you want to print on the report. The default is the current date.

3.   Do the following:

·        Select Guarantor – Select the range of guarantors you want to include. Click the From and To search buttons to select the starting and ending guarantor, respectively, or, leave <ALL> selected in both fields to include all guarantors.

·        Select Provider – Select the range of providers you want to include. Click the From and To search buttons to select the starting and ending provider, respectively, or, leave <ALL> selected in both fields to include all providers.
