Channel Revenue Management-Receivable Claim Settlement Process

Channel Revenue Management-Receivable Claim Settlement Process

Deductions originally started in consumer goods where powerful retailers would short pay invoices based on their understanding of the trade terms or agreements.
This has spread across all industries, and deductions are a common practice not only for collecting promotions, but also for any kind of dispute or misunderstanding, whether it’s a pricing error,
transportation related, damages, and so on. This is also the hardest challenge for the receivables departments to resolve because of the need for approval from outside receivables, like sales or shipping. The customer may short pay based on their own policies and procedures. It’s up to you to resolve these claims According to market surveys, deductions can represent 5 to 15 percentage of revenue, depending
on the industry. Of that number, 5.1 to 10 percent are invalid or unauthorized. In some industries it
can be a lot higher.
