When a company is just starting, it is best if the policies and procedures are laid out. There are methods that need to be followed to ensure that things are done properly. When it comes to the companies payable and receivables, the simplest way to do it is to prepare an accounts receivable and accounts payable flowchart. This way, it will be easier for the employees to follow the policies. This is also a way for employees and managers to review their workflow.
It is relatively easy to do an accounts receivable and account payable flowchart. The flow chart for the accounts receivables and the accounts payable can differ from one company or from one accountant to another. The basics though are generally the same. Accounts payable begins with identifying and organizing your payables and ends with a payment. Accounts receivable begins with identifying sales and receivables and ends with depositĀ of received payments.
