How Automating the Management of Customer Deductions Reduces Time, Complexity and Cost in Accounts Receivable

CFOs are taking a hard look at their accounts receivable processes.

As one of the largest assets on the balance sheet, accounts receivable can have a big impact on the financial performance of an organization.

One way that CFOs are improving their organization’s accounts receivable processes is by rethinking the way it researches and resolves customer deductions – when a payment is made on an amount less than the net invoice amount.

Poor deductions management results in:

• Lost profits

• High operational costs

• Wasted employee time

• Frustrated customers and departmental stakeholders

For many organizations, long cycles to resolve customer deductions is one of the biggest barriers standing in the way of better DSO.

It’s time to automate deductions management.

IOFM’s latest white paper details the three types of deductions, shows how manual approaches to deductions management increase the time, complexity and cost of accounts receivable, describes an automated approach to deductions management, and details the benefits of automation.
