Payment Method Examples:
INVOICE ANNUALLY:
- Client "A" orders esiLaw on April 10, 2022 and they are paying annually by invoice
- Support processes the order and sets up the account with a billing start date of May 1, 2022 and an expiry of May 1, 2023
- Accounting issues the 1st annual invoice and sends to the customer, they have until May 31, 2022 to pay
- Memorized Transaction set up for April 1, 2023 to send Year 2 invoice with a payment by April 30, 2023.
- Once paid, accounting to advise support to extend expiry to May 1, 2024, if payment not received, client expires and goes to collections
NOTE: Excel sheet will continue to be sent to support outlining types of cheque/EFT payments (Annual, Monthly, Esicare, 360) so that we can update in ADMIN accordingly.
INVOICE MONTHLY:
- Client "B" orders esiLaw on April 10, 2022 and they are paying monthly by invoice
- Support processes the order and sets up the account with a billing start date of May 1, 2022 and an expiry of May 1, 2023 (the goal is to reduce the manual work on a monthly basis so we will still set this a year out)
- Memorized Transaction set up to perpetually send monthly invoice, beginning on May 1, 2022, on the 1st of every month with a required payment date prior to the end of that month
- In the event that the customer does NOT pay and invoice for 60+ days, support will be notified by accounting and the overdue accounts will be expired in ADMIN
From Accounting: please note, we have diarized this task on the 7th of every month.
Example: If May 1st invoice remain unpaid as of Jul.7th (over 60 days) plus any subsequent bills unpaid (eg. Jun), we will advise support to expire the account on August 7th, and support to set expiry message to send to clients on -28 days of the expiry date (ie. Jul.9th). The list for this example would be sent on July 7th. This would ideally be a monthly task for Accounting to perform on 7th of each month, and Support to perform on 9th of each month.”
