I know 'posted' is officially 'posted' to the accounts -but what is the
'saved' one for.

The saved/posted states exist to be able to implement a "4 eyes principle": the idea that colleagues should check each other before transactions are entered into the books. One colleague enters the transaction into the system and saves; the other verifies and posts.

ANd if it is an intermediary step then why are 'saved' credit notes
showing up under the AR aging report - if they are not yet posted then
surely they are not officially on the accounts and therefore should not
show under AR aging.

That does sound like a bug indeed.
