Credit Company Payment Management
Introduction
Credit company payment management covers the lifecycle of bills sent to insurance companies, corporate clients, and other credit organisations — from initial billing, through claim verification, to final settlement. Bills marked as Credit payment are held as receivables until the credit company makes a payment.
