Account Collection Control Log Template
The Credit Manager should proceed with the collection process by completing an Account Collection Control Log Template. This form will assist in planning and tracking the collection effort. Depending on the amount and the customer situation, the representative can choose to follow-up with collection letters, telephone calls or both.
Keep in mind no matter how careful customers are screened prior to credit approval, slow pay or delinquent accounts will occur from time to time. Once an account becomes past due by even a few days, the collection process should commence immediately. Studies have shown that the sooner the collection process starts then the more likely that the debt will be collected.
Record all actions taken (late payment notice, telephone call, etc.) with a date on the REV109-1 ACCOUNT COLLECTION CONTROL Form filed in the customer folder. All customer agreements and explanations should be noted. If payment has not reached the company by the expected date, immediate follow-up action should be taken with another collection call or letter. The longer an overdue account is ignored, the longer the customer will ignore it, too.
