TimelyBill's Dunning and Collections Modules
Dunning & Collections in Telecom
In most cases, customers will pay their bills before the specified due date. However, there may be customers who do not pay their bills. In this case, service providers must take some action to rectify the situation and collect the outstanding balance owed.

The collections process tracks past due account receivables, sends notifications to the customer, and triggers actions in the absence of payments after a specific due date.

TimelyBill supports dunning at the account level whereby all overdue amounts for an account, across several invoices, can be handled by a single dunning action.

With just a little configuration, organizations can:
  • Trigger email reminders to customers
  • Create letters for printing
  • Perform automatic provisioning (i.e., suspend services)
  • Change account status to collections
  • Write-off accounts
  • Perform general ledger transactions
TimelyBill's gives CSPs the power to create business rules on a customer's aging information, account data, and current balances to effect custom notifications and actions.

We're pleased to announce that TimelyBill is now a BroadSoft OSS/BSS Solutions Partner
Did you know TimelyBill has full provisioning integration with the BroadSoft platform?

Our unique provisioning system design, combined with the tight integration of our product catalog, provides “true” flow through provisioning to the BroadSoft platform.

You can build provisioning plans containing the information necessary to execute up to 10 different provision methods (i.e., activate, suspend and resume).  Each method can contain an unlimited number of steps.  TimelyBill also has the ability to modify BroadSoft settings on a single or multiple user basis.

During a provisioning process TimelyBill is able to populate variables from any service or customer. We also enable the linking of trouble ticket emails to every provisioning step. So if a problem occurs during the automated provisioning process, notifications are sent immediately.
