Pushing goods on credit is easy, but
collecting payments is tough!
Overdue in the distribution business is common. Improper handling of outstanding
can deprive you from realising revenue.
Under-reporting of collections?
Unverified payment collections via salesman get plagued with problems of under-reporting.
- High possibility of pilferage
- Pocketing the collected payment
- Misreporting the received cash
- False customer signature
- Counterfeit customer copies
Hassle managing cash collections?
Collections management requires a lot of time and effort every day.
- Unable to follow up on unpaid invoices
- Not having handy outstanding reports
- Keeping track of cash in hands of salesman
- Managing collection with a physical ledger is tedious
- Difficulty to track across payment modes
Mismanaged outstanding?
Manual management of outstanding and collections is tough.
- More goods dispatched despite existing dues
- Delayed reaching out for payments
- Unnoticed dues of customers
- Huge outstanding stuck in market
Reduced Visibility of field?
Lack of visibility into when and who is collecting how-much in field can open up loop-holes.
- Gap between amount collected by salesman and amount given at back office
- Salesman not reporting collections to back office
- Payment verification is difficult with customer
Lack of systematic collection management challenges your growth
Collection management becomes a challenge as you scale your distribution
business and the number of salesmen increases.
Revenue Pilferage increases
When collections are happening throughout the day and across the beats, many loopholes open up unless a proper system is used.
- Payment collected but not deposited back in the office
- Mismatch in the amount of payment collected and deposited
Outstanding Balloons
Unmanaged collections will result in increasing unpaid bills and the bloated outstanding can lead to cash-flow problems.
- Unpaid invoices not being tracked and followed up
- More Goods dispatched to a customer who already owed money
- Some debts cannot be recovered
Hurts Business Credibility
Unmanaged collection results in balance mismatches, which frustrate customers and erode the business's credibility.
- Customer’s payments don’t reflect in records
- Credit does not get passed to retailers
Overhead expenses Inflate
Staff required to manage collections increases, which raises the overhead cost.
- Tedious collection reconciliation in evening
- Increase in staff requirement and remuneration
Managing collections in diary is tedious and cumbersome
- Requires manual work
- Managing ledgers is tiresome
- Hard to follow up on unpaid bills
- Possibility of pilferage is high
- Records can be fabricated
Maintaining spreadsheet is time-consuming
- Tracking receivables is complex
- Re-entering data is tedious
- Time-consuming work for employees
- Minor errors may result in confusion
- Not a secured solution
