I would certainly agree here. If credits are simply ‘left off’ this report, the very first question a customer will have will be about their credit notes. This report is the closest equivalent to a Statement of Account. It should contain everything.
I can see it could get messy with the aging table, so that should likely be just positive balances outstanding. Or, include the credit notes here as well, but age them just like an invoice, don’t ‘apply’ them to an invoice.
A third possible option —does it make sense to show a separate aging table for credit notes if any?
