Implementing Quick Receivable

This guide is for teams planning a structured rollout of Quick Receivable across a full AR team, multiple collectors, or multiple entities, rather than a single admin setting it up alone. If you just need to install the package and sync your first accounts, start with Getting Started instead.

Implementation Phases

Most Quick Receivable rollouts move through five phases. Because Quick Receivable installs directly into your existing Salesforce org rather than standing up separate infrastructure, most of the work is configuration, data validation, and testing, not engineering.

1. Discovery and planning: document your current AR process, aging methodology, collector structure, credit policy, and the ERP or accounting system you'll connect.
2. Sandbox configuration: install and configure Quick Receivable in a Sandbox first, including ERP sync, dunning templates, collector assignments, and credit risk scoring inputs.
3. Data and integration setup: connect your ERP or accounting system and confirm accounts, invoices, and payment history sync correctly.
4. User acceptance testing (UAT): have real Collectors and AR Admins work realistic accounts through the full cycle, from a reminder through cash application, before go-live.
5. Go-live and hypercare: move configuration to Production, train end users, and monitor closely for the first billing and collection cycle.

Roles and Responsibilities

A smooth implementation usually involves people in these roles, even if one person wears more than one hat on a smaller team.

Sandbox vs. Production

• Configure and test ERP sync, dunning templates, and credit scoring inputs in a Sandbox before touching Production, especially for your first implementation.
• Use a Full or Partial Copy Sandbox if you want realistic existing AR data to test against. A Developer Sandbox works fine for basic configuration testing.
• Plan your Sandbox-to-Production migration deliberately, since manually reconfiguring dunning templates and collector assignments in Production reduces the risk of carrying over test data by mistake.

Data Migration Considerations

• Open invoices and current balances: decide a cutover date and bring in open, unpaid invoices as of that date so aging is accurate from day one.
• Historical payment behavior: if you plan to use Credit Risk Scoring, payment timing history for existing customers strengthens the score from the start rather than building up over time.
• Existing disputes and promises: decide whether to migrate open disputes and outstanding payment promises or let your team re-log anything still active as of cutover.

Testing and UAT Checklist

• Test ERP sync with a real batch of accounts and invoices, not just a handful of clean sample records.
• Test each stage of the dunning cycle, from an early reminder through a final notice and broken-promise follow-up.
• Test cash application with a range of real remittance formats, including a payment that covers multiple invoices.
• Test dispute logging and confirm reminders pause correctly while a dispute is open.
• Confirm the Management Dashboard and Aging Bucket Current report show the data your finance team actually needs before go-live, not after.

Go-Live Checklist

• ERP or accounting sync tested end-to-end, including your production sync schedule.
• All go-live users assigned the correct permission sets and licenses.
• Dunning templates reviewed and approved for tone and timing.
• Collectors assigned to your highest-priority accounts, at minimum.
• A named point of contact for the first collection cycle, in case questions come up.
• A rollback or fallback plan for the first week, in case something needs adjusting.

After Go-Live

Expect to make small adjustments to dunning wording, collector assignments, and credit scoring inputs in the first few billing cycles as real-world exceptions surface. This is normal and doesn't indicate the implementation went wrong. See Troubleshooting for common early issues.
