Key Terms and Glossary

Key terms used in collections and accounts receivable are defined below to help you navigate the process.

Accounts Receivable

Money owed to your business by customers who have not yet paid for goods or services.

Demand Letter

When a Limited Approach Is Sufficient:

Reason 1: Small balances and cooperative debtors

For straightforward cases with modest balances, a well crafted demand letter and negotiations can resolve the debt without court action.

If the debtor responds promptly and agrees to payment terms, litigation may be avoided and relationships can be preserved.

Older debts, multiple parties, or disputes benefit from a full service plan that reviews all remedies and preserves relationships.

Reason 2: Risk management and compliance

A complete program helps you stay compliant with debt collection laws and reduces risk to your business.
