Frequently Asked Questions.
Q: What reports does AR Collect generate automatically?
AR Collect generates real-time ageing reports, DSO trend reports, collection rate reports, reminder effectiveness reports, and customer-level communication history reports. These update automatically as invoices are issued and payments are received. No manual compilation is required.
Q: What is DSO and why does it matter?
DSO stands for Days Sales Outstanding. It measures the average number of days between issuing an invoice and receiving payment. A lower DSO means you are collecting faster and have more cash available in the business. AR Collect tracks your DSO trend over time so you can see whether your collections process is improving.
Q: Can I export reports for board presentations or audit purposes?
Yes. All reports in AR Collect are exportable in multiple formats. You can generate an on-demand report, export it, and use it in a board presentation or submit it for an audit at any time.
Q: How current is the data in the AR Collect dashboard?
The dashboard updates in real time as data changes in your connected accounting software. When a customer pays, when a new invoice is issued, or when a reminder is sent, the dashboard reflects that change immediately. You are always looking at live data, not a snapshot from yesterday’s export.
Q: Can I schedule reports to be delivered automatically to my CFO or stakeholders?
Yes. You can configure scheduled report delivery to any email address. This is useful for sending weekly DSO summaries to a CFO, monthly ageing reports to a business owner, or daily overdue summaries to your collections team.
Q: How does the ageing report break down?
The ageing report categorizes outstanding invoices into time buckets: current (not yet due), 1-30 days overdue, 31-60 days, 61-90 days, and 90+ days. Each bucket shows the total value and number of invoices. You can click into any bucket to see the individual invoices and customers within it.
Q: Can I see which reminder sequences are performing best?
Yes. The reminder effectiveness report shows open rates, click-through rates, and payment conversion rates for each step in your configured sequences. This lets you compare different reminder strategies and optimize based on actual results.
