Philippines accounts receivable follow-up: a controlled workflow

Published September 1, 2026. Organize customer follow-up around an approved ledger, contact rules, dispute routing, and daily reconciliation.

Key takeaways

  • Export approved open items with invoice, due date, amount, prior contact, and owner. Lock the reporting timestamp so later payments are not mistaken for missed work.
  • Provide approved templates and contact windows. Changing terms, promising credits, disputes, hardship requests, and suspected fraud remain with named client owners.
  • Record delivered messages, replies, bounces, disputes, and source-system payments. The client owner validates cash application and commercial decisions.
