A Smarter NetSuite Collections Solution, Built by Protelo

SOLUTION OVERVIEW:

1. Automated Dunning & Payment Reminders 

Following up on overdue invoices takes time, especially when reminders need to be sent at different stages of the payment cycle. Protelo's solution automates payment reminders within NetSuite, helping your team maintain consistent communication with customers.

Key capabilities include:

  • Scheduled payment reminders: Send reminders 14 days and 5 days before an invoice is due, followed by overdue notices at 30, 60, and 90 days.

  • Invoice-specific controls: Pause reminders for an invoice under investigation without stopping reminders for other outstanding invoices belonging to the same customer.

  • Centralized collections visibility: View upcoming and overdue invoices alongside notification activity in one dashboard.

By automating routine follow-ups, your team can maintain a more consistent collections process while focusing attention on accounts that need it most.

 


2. Automated Credit Limit Monitoring 

Managing credit exposure is easier when your team knows when customers are approaching or exceeding their limits. Protelo's solution helps businesses monitor customer credit activity and notify the right people when action may be needed.

Features include:

  • Credit exposure notifications: Alert customers when they reach predefined credit exposure thresholds.

  • Reduced notification noise: Avoid sending repetitive alerts when a customer remains at the same threshold.

  • Sales team alerts: Notify sales when a customer reaches their credit limit.

  • Order approval controls: Allow sales orders to be entered while restricting approval until the account has been reviewed.

These controls help your team identify potential credit issues earlier and make more informed decisions before extending additional credit.

 

3. Bounced Email Monitoring 

Payment reminders can only help if they reach the right people. Protelo’s NetSuite solution gives your Finance team a centralized view of customer email delivery issues, making it easier to identify and resolve problems that could interrupt collections communications.

How it works:

  • Identifies email delivery failures: Flags customer email addresses associated with bounced messages.

  • Highlights affected accounts: Gives Finance visibility into which customer accounts may be missing important communications.

  • Helps resolve communication issues: Makes it easier to correct contact information and improve future email delivery.

Help ensure payment reminders and other collections notifications reach the right contacts, reducing the risk of missed communications and unnecessary delays in the collections process.
