Streamline Your Accounts Receivable Process

 



Data Analytics for Predictive Insights is assuming far greater importance when it comes to efficiently managing the Accounts Receivables Process. From forecasting customer payment patterns, to spotting possible credit concerns to maximizing cash flow, to improving an organization’s overall financial process, to lowering bad debt, to getting the ability to make well-informed strategic decisions, the role of Data Analytics cannot be undermined.

Businesses and organizations that still rely of siloed legacy technologies and systems have data locked up in themselves and this truly obstructs efficiency by creating an unduly complex, non-integrated and inefficient AR landscape. Integration capabilities can help create a single source of truth that can, not only enhance decision-making, but also give AR Teams and other teams a more seamless & cohesive experience that helps boost productivity and of course motivation.

MAJOR BENEFITS OF INTEGRATING DATA ANALYTICS INTO THE PROCESS OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE MANAGEMENT:

1. INCREASED CASH FLOW VISIBILITY:

Data Analytics helps organizations gain a thorough understanding of their accounts receivable and helps them easily spot payment gaps and/ or delays. AR Teams can easily prevent any late surprises and manage their cash flow in a far productive manner.

2. IMPROVED DECISION-MAKING CAPABILITIES:

Another key benefit of Data Analytics is that organizations gain the ability to make informed strategic decisions regarding every aspect of the AR Management Process, from credit terms, to payment schedules, to collection strategies & tactics etc. This can be done by a simple analysis of past payment trends and customer payment behaviour.

For any business, the current invoicing process involves delivery of invoices (either online or offline), followed by a reconciliation process against POs & purchasing system data, and finally payment. This, already long process, is slowed down by the need for approval and review at every stage. While automation of e-invoicing helps deliver invoices faster, and businesses are looking at automating payment processing as well, there are still several ways to increase accuracy and speed. And one key way is Blockc
