What Credit-to-Cash is
Credit-to-Cash (C2C) is the extended commercial flow that begins before the order, with customer credit assessment and limit, and continues through order, invoicing, collection and payment. It adds the credit-risk dimension to Order-to-Cash.
Why it matters to the board
A sale isn't complete until it's collected. Credit-to-Cash ties credit policy to operations: it prevents exposure to risky customers, but also the needless blocking of good orders - a direct balance between growth and risk.
Key steps
- Credit assessment and limit setting
- Automatic balance check on every order
- Release/hold on risk rules
