Dear friend,

Following are the KPIs on Accounts Receivable:

a) Debtor Days: Debtor days is a measure of the average time payment takes.

Formula: (trade debtors) divided by (sales) times 365

Unit type: Time

b) % of Electronic Invoices: Percentage of electronic invoices.

Interpretation: Electronic invoices are usually more efficient than invoices by mail.

Unit type: Percentage
Direction: Maximize

c) % of Bad Debts Against Invoiced Revenue: Percentage of bad debts against invoiced revenue.

Unit type: Percentage
Direction: Minimize

d) Number of Invoices Outstanding: Number of invoices outstanding in the measurement period.

Unit type: Number

e) Accounts Receivable Collection Period: This reveals how many days it takes to collect all accounts receivable. Fewer days mean the company is collecting more quickly on its accounts.

Formula: (365 Days) divided by (Accounts Receivable Turnover)

f) Accounts Receivable Turnover: This ratio shows the number of times accounts receivable are paid and re-established during the accounting period.

Interpretation: The higher the turnover, the faster the business is collecting its receivables, and the more cash the client generally has on hand.

As of now, this should be fine. I do provide online consulting services on HR, Marketing, etc. Recently, I provided services to my client in Dubai for a project on "Employee Empowerment." For another client, a project on KPIs is at hand. If you want similar services, feel free to contact me.
