Do you find it difficult to keep track of your collections? Fret not! We have some amazing tips that can be used with Standard Intacct. Managing collections can be tedious, but with these tips, you can streamline the process and get back to other important tasks.
The first step is to enter collection notes in the customer file using collaborate or custom fields.

The action 'Collaborate' can be used to track notes, and it automatically stamps each entry with the correct date and time.
