How to Track Overdue Invoices in Odoo 18?

Running a business means managing cash flow properly. One of the biggest challenges for companies is overdue invoices—payments that are delayed or forgotten by customers. If you don’t track them on time, it can create serious financial stress.

The good news? With Odoo 18 Accounting, you can easily track, manage, and follow up on overdue invoices without any manual hassle. In this blog, we’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of tracking overdue invoices in Odoo 18, along with some real-world insights.

Why Tracking Overdue Invoices Matters?

Imagine you sold products worth ₹50,000 to a customer, and the payment was due last week. You are busy with daily operations, and you forget to follow up. That one unpaid invoice can disturb your monthly cash flow. Multiply that with multiple clients, and you’ll see why businesses struggle.

That’s where Odoo 18’s Accounting module helps—you get a clear dashboard, automatic reminders, and payment follow-up options to stay on top of overdue invoices.
