ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE REVIEW · Workflow idea

Follow up consistently while checking payment status and recent conversations first.

For invoices an authorized finance team may manage, calculate days overdue from the approved invoice record and check recent customer correspondence before preparing a reminder at the configured intervals. Verify invoice status, amount, recipient, and payment instructions; keep financial and email data restricted; follow applicable collection rules; and leave each message as a draft until a finance owner approves the exact wording and recipient.

Keep in mind

A stale payment record or misread conversation can prompt an inappropriate collection message. Reconcile payment status first, minimize access to customer correspondence, avoid unsupported threats or fees, comply with local rules, and require human approval before sending or escalating a debt.
