Why KPIs Are Critical

Using the right KPIs and formulas provides valuable insights into a company’s financial position. Is your business profitable? Are there liquidity risks? Especially in economically challenging times, accounts receivable KPIs are highly important, as they show how effectively the company collects outstanding receivables. With KLEVERBILL you keep these KPIs in view—digitally, transparently, and efficiently.

5 Key KPIs in Accounts Receivable

1. Invoice Processing Time

This KPI measures how long it takes for an invoice to be issued after service delivery. The shorter the processing time, the more efficiently your accounting function operates. With KLEVERBILL, you digitize and accelerate this process to just a few days.

2. Days Sales Outstanding (DSO)

DSO indicates how long customers take on average to settle invoices. A shorter period means stronger liquidity. With KLEVERBILL, you reduce DSO through automated processes and a consistent dunning workflow.

3. Overdue Duration

Despite reminders, some customers become overdue. This is where overdue duration shows how quickly your dunning process is effective. KLEVERBILL helps minimize this time span—thanks to automated reminders and escalation levels.

4. Bad Debt Losses

In cases of disputes or insolvencies, receivables must be written off. The default rate provides insight into the effectiveness of your dunning process. With KLEVERBILL, you maintain full visibility of this rate and improve it over time.

5. Working Capital

Working capital describes the difference between current assets and short-term liabilities. With efficient receivables management, you improve this key KPI and create greater financial flexibility.
