Optimize your DSO by combining a technical solution with a financial mediation service provider

Optimizing DSO – the average time it takes to pay your invoices – is an integral part of business life.
Reducing DSO helps companies to manage their cash flow and to ensure the smooth running of their business.
Find out how you can improve your DSO by taking action all along the payment chain.

Billing, payment and cash flow

When a company provides services or sells products or services, it often works with a quotation or invoice payable within 30 days.
All too often, the customer takes the full amount due before making payment, as is their right.
This is complicated for companies to manage, as they have to plan their cash flow according to each customer’s payment terms. For companies, it is therefore essential to work on optimizing their payment terms in order to better manage their cash flow and avoid ending up with too many invoices “on the outside”.

Integrate a complete solution for managing your accounts receivable

To improve your collection cycle, you can take action not just once, but throughout the relationship.
When you use a credit management solution, you have a complete tool at your disposal, including :

  • Delegated management of your accounts receivable with MY DSO MANAGER
  • Sales reminders and outsourced debt collection.
  • A team of specialists and legal support at your side.

A complete accounts receivable tracking solution that meets all your company’s customer management needs: administration, invoicing and payment.

Administrative management

Administrative management is an important part of customer relations: contractualizing requests, tracking orders and keeping track of all administrative data.
All this is essential for any company.
An administrative management tool is the ideal way to keep track of your customers.
In the event of a dispute with a customer, it guarantees the best possible protection thanks to archived contractual documents.

Billing

By 2023 dematerialization of your invoices will be mandatory for all invoices concerned.
Score and Secure Payment offers you the possibility of embedding its payment solution in your dematerialized invoices, so that you can start complying now.
In addition to invoicing, it is important to plan for the management of unpaid invoices at the same time.
Very often, companies take an interest in this when the customer is already in arrears.
In this case, it’s important to extract the information you need from the invoice.
In this case, it’s necessary to extract all the data needed to validate the claim and, finally, achieve debt collection.
An integrated dunning service frees you from these constraints. With a dunning service directly integrated into your payment platform, you can reduce your collection lead times.
No need for electronic data interchange.

Payment

Too often, companies simply issue and generate invoices to their customers, without necessarily worrying about ease of payment.
And yet, when customers receive your invoice, they need to be able to pay it as easily as possible, in order to improve your DSO.

Choosing a complete receivables management solution is a good way to ensure your success. For example, early contact in the event of a direct debit rejection on behalf of the creditor enables us to reposition a settlement or identify a dispute with the debtor customer.
