Documentation

Definition

A collection strategy controls the priority of a worklist item (business partner per collection segment). It also controls the preparation and the due date valuation and sorting of receivables of a business partner.

Use

Dependencies

The strategy is assigned to the collection group, meaning that all worklist items for this group are prioritized and valuated in the same way.

Example

Depending on the specifications, you can use different strategies to process different problem fields and contact the business partners accordingly:

• Customers with large overdue amounts
• Proactive receivables management (call shortly before due date)
• Telephone dunning
• Following up broken promises to pay
• Following up dispute cases to be collected
• Considering critical data from credit management (risk class, limit exceeded)
• Resubmissions due
