Order-to-Cash Automation
As a Fuel Distributor if you don’t automate your Order-to-Cash process and solely depend on pen & paper or spreadsheets, then you likely have leaks in your process. If your pipeline is leaking, then your time-to-cash is getting bogged down. Invoices aren’t getting sent in a timely manner, slowing down the time it takes to get invoices paid. You’re also likely not the first in line to get paid.
Imagine your order pipeline, on one end, the order goes in, on the other, cash comes out. In the simplest sense, your customers place orders, you promptly fulfill those orders, reconcile and you get cash. But the problem is, You may have a leaky order pipeline and not know it.
A leaky order pipeline is faced with delays, errors, issues and all sorts of problems from the moment an order is created to the time the order is fulfilled and invoiced. If you depend on pen & paper, and spreadsheets, and have people scrambling, and making decisions based on incorrect or obsolete info, this inevitably will result in a breakdown or leaks in each step of your order-to-cash pipeline.
By leveraging a tightly sealed pipeline, orders flow with greater efficiency while relevant information flows to the team in real-time.
