Customer Statement Errors

If the customer statement process encounters a problem sending email, an error log is generated. Customer statement error logs contain a description of the error. You can use the details in the error messages to fix the errors. You can then resend the failed customer statements.

To view customer statement errors:

Click the customer statements with errors link in the customer statements section on the Collections page. A list of errors, grouped by type and then by account, displays.
On the Customer Statement Log page, click a customer statement log with the type "Error", to view the details of the error.
On the Customer Statements Detail page, click Customer Statement Logs on the Related Details list, to view the logs for the customer statement. You can then view the individual customer statement logs.
On the Automated Collections page, click (Edit) in the Errors column to display the Reminders with Errors window.

Customer statements can have errors for the following reasons:

There is no contact associated with the account.
The contact does not have a valid email address.
There is no valid email template associated with the customer statement.
The user who started the customer statement process does not have access to the correct profile for the org-wide email address configured for the customer statement rule.
The org-wide email address configured for the customer statement rule is not verified.
The org-wide email address configured for the customer statement rule is deleted.
