English term or phrase: Accounts Receivable
Eigentlich ist es lediglich ein Template-String für ein Datenbankprogramm, von daher ist fraglich, wie technisch/fachlich die deutsche Übersetzung sein darf... Könnte man einfach von "offene Rechnungen" sprechen? Oder muss da ein extra Buchhaltungs-Begriff her (und wenn ja welcher?)

Explanation:
This has got to be in the glossaries.

agree Katrin Hollberg: Kl. Nachtrag zur Erklärung, weil ja beide Vorschläge korr. sind: >Forderungen< benutzt man, solange man s. im Hauptbuch befindet. Im Nebenbuch passt dann >Debitoren< besser, weil man hier auch einzelne Debitoren (Namen) anführen kann. Je nach Gliederung..

accounts receivable Debitoren / Außenstände

Explanation:
These are two other possibilities, which are equally valid as "Forderungen".
Your choice!

In programs, Debitoren/Kreditoren are the most usual headings, IMO.
