To be included in this report, a matter must meet both of the following criteria:

  • It must have a current general trust account balance associated with the selected bank account.
  • It must show no general trust-related activity for no less than the specified period, as measured from the designated At Date.

Filters:

At DateDisplays matters with no trust account activity from the specified date for the selected general trust bank account.
Bank AccountSelect a specific general trust bank account to narrow the report's focus exclusively to that account.
No Activity For

Lists all matters that have experienced no activity at the specified "At Date" for one of the following duration or longer than it: 

  • 1 month
  • 2 month
  • 3 month
  • 6 month
  • 12 month
  • 24 month

NOTE:

The 'At Date' filter sets a reference point for assessing activity, while the 'No Activity For' filter specifies the minimum duration without trust transactions for a matter to be considered inactive. For example, if you set the At Date as Date A and the No Activity For period to 2 months, the report will capture matters where the Last Activity Date is at least 2 months before Date A.
