Collections & Dunning Automation

Follow up consistently without losing track of customer conversations and payment promises. Collections and dunning in Quick Receivable are built around a shared AR inbox and a standard reminder cycle tied to every invoice.

Accounts Receivable Email Automation

Keep AR emails in one shared inbox instead of scattered across personal mailboxes. Emails are organized by type, so your team can quickly find the right conversation.

  • Statement
  • Dispute
  • Remittance
  • Promised
  • Invoice Request
  • PO Update
  • Out of Office
  • Ready-made templates cover the collection cycle, from an early reminder to a final notice.
  • More templates cover common cases, like a broken promise or a dispute confirmation.
  • Filter the inbox by sender, subject, or category to find any email fast.

Dunning & Payment Reminder Cycle

Dunning reminders follow each invoice through the payment cycle. Quick Receivable sends the right reminder at the right time.

StageWhen it's sent
Early reminderBefore the invoice is even due
Due reminderA friendly nudge right at the due date
Past-due reminderFirmer in tone once payment is late
Final noticeThe last step in the standard cycle
Broken-promise follow-upSent when a promised payment date passes unpaid

Promise-to-Pay Tracking

When a customer promises to pay, your team can record the promised amount and date directly on the invoice. The promise stays connected to the invoice and account.

  • A Promised Amount and Promised Date are recorded on the invoice.
  • If the date passes without payment, it counts toward the account's Broken Promise total automatically.
  • A Broken Promise Follow Up email template is ready to send as soon as that happens.

Dispute Interaction

A disputed invoice behaves differently from a normal past-due invoice: collection reminders can pause while a dispute is being resolved, so customers aren't chased for an amount they've formally disputed. See Dispute Management for the full workflow.

Where AI Fits In

If a customer doesn't respond to email, Quick Receivable can place an AI Collection Call directly from the account, either a Broken Promise Call or a routine Invoice Follow-Up Call. Every call logs its outcome and sentiment. See AI Features for the full set of AI-powered collection tools.
