Accounts receivable collection refers to the legal steps a business can take to recover amounts owed by customers, from initial reminders to formal demand letters and, if needed, court actions.
Key elements include accurate invoicing records, documented communication, lawful demand letters, and a plan for escalation that may involve negotiations, settlement offers, and, if required, litigation.
This glossary explains common terms used in accounts receivable collections and how they apply in California.
Accounts receivable are amounts owed to your business by customers for goods or services provided on credit.
