hey,

you are still confused. there is no such field “remaining amount” in “customer” table & “balance” in “cust. Ledger entry”.

But I think you would like this reply :—

Balance is net amount of all the transactions happened to that customer.

Whereas remaining amount is the net amount after tagging crdit amounts with bills.

Hence:–

Balance = sum of remaining amount.

remaining amount, sums the remaining amount in customer ledger entries, that means the unapplied entries. it is usually the same as balance.
