Description topics

Assets
Other accounts receivable/payable
The transactions in the sector accounts are mainly recorded at a moment that does not coincide with the moment the transaction is completed. These time differences cause changes in assets and liabilities, which are recorded in the transaction 'other accounts receivable and payable'.
For example, sales are recorded at the moment of delivery. At that moment, a claim of the supplier on the buyer (supplier’s credit) arises, which is nullified when the buyer pays. Other examples are payments in advance on deliveries (buyer’s credit) and due payments or receipts of wages and salaries, interests, contributions etc.
