The prompt
Works in Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Copilot. Fill in the [brackets], then paste your data under it.
Build an AR aging and collections dashboard from the aging report below. - Tiles: total open AR, total past due, total over 60 days, DSO (trailing 90 days: [VALUE or "calculate it"]). - Aging buckets: Current, 1–30, 31–60, 61–90, 90+ as horizontal bars with amounts, colored from blue (current) to red (90+). Under the bars, say what percent of AR is past due vs. our target of [PERCENT]. - Table of the 6 largest past-due accounts: customer, amount past due, days past due, status note. Tag anything over 60 days in red. My aging report: [paste the aging report export] Build it as ONE self-contained HTML file: - Put all the data inside the file. No API calls, no fetch, no external data. - Use plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript (inline SVG for charts is fine). If you need a chart library, load it from cdn.jsdelivr.net. - Add a "data as of" date under the title. - Make it readable on a laptop and print cleanly to one page if possible.

Keep it current
How often: Weekly, or before every collections call. Update the same dashboard each time instead of sending a new file, so your team keeps one link and every past version is kept. Your AI can do the refresh for you: see dashboards that update every week.
Common questions
What are the standard AR aging buckets?
Current (not yet due), 1–30, 31–60, 61–90 and over 90 days past due. Most teams watch the share of AR that is past due and anything over 60 days most closely.
Can I make an AR aging dashboard from a QuickBooks export?
Yes. Export the A/R Aging Summary or Detail report, paste it into your AI tool with the prompt on this page, and ask for one HTML file. Check the totals against the report before you share it.
