CAM Payment Records Test
Dunning is a part of receivables management and becomes active as soon as a customer fails to pay an invoice on time. Intelligent dunning processes provide support in securing the liquidity of companies through the administration of payment reminders in the case of overdue invoices. CAM helps to integrate all the dunning procedures as digital processes. For this, CAM is connected to your accounting system. When an invoice becomes overdue, CAM intervenes to manage the process. The system suggests measures according to your criteria and performs them automatically if desired. This is made possible by putting individual customers into dunning groups. In this way, each individual customer can be allocated a process with measures such as initiating telephone payment reminders, dunning letters or passing on to a debt collection agency. CAM makes use of the payment records for performing the dunning process. The payment records are calculated using CAM software to find out any overdue in the payment. However, if CAM takes more time to calculate the payment records, it would cause a bitter user experience that can lead to loss of customer interest in the application usage. For this reason, it is really essential to monitor the calculation time of payment records by the application and alert administrators on any slowdowns or setbacks in a timely manner.
This test tracks the average rate at which payment records are calculated, and the 75th, 95th, 99th and 999th percentile value of calculation time. In addition, this test also reports the mean rate, median and standard deviation of the calculation times, and the number of payment records calculated and yet to be calculated. These statistical measures help administrators to analyze the calculation time of payment records on the application and promptly detect any deviations before user experience is negatively impacted.
