debitormasse

English translation: accounts receivables

Bus/Financial - Accounting / Balance sheet terminology
Danish term or phrase: debitormasse
Debitorerne er beregnet ud fra omsætning og de betalingsbetingelser, som de enkelte debitorer har. Dette medfører en debitormasse på op til XXX. Dette tal ses ikke i balancen hvor tallet er noget mindre, hvilket skyldes indbetaling ultimo måneden i XXX.

I have guessed it as "debtor mass" but think that's too obvious and there aren't many results on Google. Any help appreciated.

I also thought of debtor volume, but I didn't find very many Google hits for that. Not that Google should be considered an authority on this subject matter...
