Collections

Collections is part of Money & The Close in Windward System Five. System Five includes 5 documented capabilities here — 3 in the standard set and 2 optional.

These 5 capabilities sit within System Five's 1287-capability documented set — a selection, not a ceiling.

Optional

Aged A/R Report Optional #

See who is late paying us

Ages outstanding invoices by book month into 30, 60 and 90 day columns with an optional 120-day column, or by literal date with user-defined period lengths. Filters cover invoice type, salesperson on the invoice or on the customer, pre-authorised payment customers, and lookup words.

Collections workflow from the report Optional #

Work the debtor list without leaving it

From the aged report a user opens the customer record, opens the invoice, reads or adds customer notes, prints customer labels, and bulk-assigns a lookup word to every customer invoice that matched the filters.

Multi-currency receivables reporting Optional #

Age foreign invoices in our currency

Aged A/R and the A/R Sub-Ledger can either restrict to invoices posted in a chosen currency, or include all invoices with the foreign ones estimated into the chosen currency at the rate for a nominated currency date.

National subsidiary account aging Optional #

Age a chain's branches under one account

For national accounts the aged report can list subsidiaries separately, group them but still list them separately, group them with totals, or roll them into the national account.

Pre-authorised payments and electronic statements Optional #

Get paid automatically every month

Recurring receivables can be collected by pre-authorised credit card or EFT, with a default card tender type and messages that print on the invoice by tender type. Statements can be produced as PDFs, optionally prompting for the PDF details at generation.
