How should a proper accounts receivable and collections process work?
A proper collections process starts with a monthly aged debtors analysis, not one done only once a problem is already felt. That analysis splits client balances by how overdue they are (current, 30, 60, 90+ days), and it shows exactly who needs following up on right now before the situation gets worse.
Based on that analysis, a graduated follow-up system should kick in: a friendly reminder after the first short delay, a firmer follow-up at 30-60 days, and formal escalation — suspending dealings, referring to legal counsel, or writing off as a bad debt once every reasonable attempt has been exhausted — for accounts that have gone unanswered for a long stretch. RASEEKH helps build a clear, graduated follow-up system, instead of waiting until a debt becomes genuinely hard to collect.
