I can get a list of patrons who had a bill added the previous day, but I can't seem to limit the list to patrons who reached $25.00 at that time. The lists I do get have wrong owed amounts shown (most owe well under $25.00), and there can be 9 or more pages of patron lists to check. It seems like there should be a way to find patrons with a specific Total Owed amount in a specific time frame.

There are 22,000 lines on the report, one for each billed item. Some of the items are not overdue/lost. Some of the patrons in the report do not owe us money. I have looked through most of the patrons with last names beginning with A, B, and C and found $15,000 owed to us. But it is a painfully slow process, looking for patrons with multiple billing lines and checking their records for totals. Then copying their information to a spreadsheet.
