Definition
The DSO ("Days Sales Outstanding") identifier represents a customer's balance compared with that customer's sales. It specifies how many day's sales a customer owes a company.
There are two procedures for calculating DSO days. You can define these on the selection screen using the "DSO calculation type" parameter.
Calculation type 1: Average balance / one day's sales
With this calculation type, the average balance of x closed periods is divided by one day's sales (average sales from the corresponding x
periods):
average balance average balance
DSO = ----------------------- = ----------------- * 30
one day's sales average sales from x periods
Calculation type 2: Actual balance / one day's sales
This calculation type divides the actual balance by one day's sales (average of x periods):
actual balance actual balance
DSO = ---------------------------- = ---------------- * 30
one day's sales average sales of x periods
Example
x = 3 Balance Sales
Key date 02.15.1997 18,000 8,000
Period 01/1997 10,000 8,000
Period 12/1996 5,000 2,000
Period 11/1996 3,000 5,000
The variable x and the key date can be specified when initiating the evaluation.
Calculation type 1:
-------------------------
Average balance = (10,000 + 5,000 + 3,000) / 3 = 6,000
Average sales = (8,000 + 2,000 + 5,000) / 3 = 5,000
6,000
DSO = ---------- * 30 = 36
5,000
Result: The customer owes the value of 36 day's sales.
Calculation type 2:
-------------------------
Actual balance = 18,000
Average sales = (8,000 + 8,000 + 2,000) / 3 = 6,000
18,000
DSO = ----------- * 30 = 90
6,000
Result: The customer owes the value of 90 day's sales.
