Background
Specializing in cultural merchandise, this small and medium-sized enterprise has a strong presence in Europe.
Although it is now part of an international group, it was still facing inconsistencies in debt collection methods across its subsidiaries.
Processes varied by country, making consolidation complex and time-consuming.
That is why the finance department, together with the credit manager, began searching for a single tool.
The goal was clear: to standardize practices, ensure data reliability, and reduce payment lead times.
