Chaser has launched a new integration with Sage 200, bringing automated accounts receivable management to businesses using the ERP software. This integration helps businesses reduce late payments, eliminate manual credit management tasks, and protect cash flow with automated debtor tracking and intelligent follow-ups. Now, more businesses worldwide can benefit from end-to-end credit management automation, and reduce late invoice payments.
Why this integration matters
Late payments continue to put financial pressure on businesses, with 40% reporting a direct negative impact from late payments, including reduced investments and difficulties in paying staff (Sage). Additionally, 10% of late payments are eventually written off as bad debt, further increasing financial strain. Businesses also spend up to 20 days each year manually chasing overdue invoices, diverting resources away from growth and productivity (Sage).
With this new integration, Sage 200 users can automate their accounts receivable and debtor tracking processes, helping to reduce overdue invoices, improve efficiency, and bring revenue in faster.
