  • -Bucket boundaries set per Sch III amendment परंतु applied manually मध्ये Excel

Frequently asked

Answers, up front.

विना the Party Master, CORAA शकतो still produce aggregate एजिंग buckets वर Tier I (because व्हाउचर्स carry dates regardless च्या party identity). The लेखापरीक्षक sees totals per bucket परंतु नाही the party-level breakdown. Tier II unlocks party-wise distribution; Tier III unlocks bill-wise precision.
Two signals: (1) लेखापरीक्षक manually flags the party as Doubtful मध्ये the Party Master, किंवा (2) CORAA's provision logic flags receivables ते आहे crossed the 1-वर्ष boundary विना payment activity. The लेखापरीक्षक confirms before the वर्गीकरण locks.
