The report lists suppliers with negative balances and the memos and invoices behind them.
-$680K of supplier credits sit unused, 14 aged past 180 days — money owed back that isn't being recovered.
Request refunds or apply the credits to new invoices; aged supplier credits are recoverable cash left on the table.
This is the report's BI Publisher data model — the SQL data set BI Publisher runs against Oracle tables to produce the output. The same SQL becomes a dbt model in your warehouse, so one definition drives both the formatted report and the analytics layer.

The data-warehouse model — one fact surrounded by conformed dimensions (what you slice by) and measures (what you aggregate), expressed as dbt so it migrates with you. Grain: one row per source transaction.
