Dispute Management

Disputes stop being the reason invoices age

Kovify AR detects a dispute the moment a customer raises it, categorizes it, assigns the right internal owner, follows up until it is answered, keeps the customer informed and records how it was resolved.

Hello Susan — invoice #10428 for $35,000 is now 42 days past due. Could you confirm the scheduled payment date? Copy of the invoice attached.

We can't pay the full amount. PO 8841 was short-shipped by 3 pallets, so $4,200 is in dispute.

Thank you — I've logged a short-shipment dispute for $4,200 and routed it to our team. Can you release the undisputed $30,800 this week?

Daniel Ruiz · AR Manager
