Getting Started Guide

From your first sign-in to a running collections operation, in nine steps.

  1. 1

    Create your account and get activated

    Click “Request access” on the sign-in page and register with your work email. New accounts start inactive — a Credit & Collections administrator activates you and assigns your role on the Users page. (The very first account on the system becomes the Super Administrator automatically.)

    Sign-in page → Request access

  2. 2

    Load your accounts

    Register members and group accounts one at a time with the New Account form, or bulk-load them with the Imports wizard (Excel/CSV). Each account holds the member details, plan, premium, billing cycle and contact channels (email, mobile, Viber) that reminders are sent to.

    Accounts → New Account, or Imports → Accounts

  3. 3

    Record receivables

    Each billing period a member owes is one receivable: billing period, invoice number, amount and due date. Statuses (Not Yet Due, Due Soon, Due Today, Overdue…) are computed from the due date in Manila time. Bulk-load historical balances via Imports → Receivables.

    Receivables → New Receivable, or Imports → Receivables

  4. 4

    Review the reminder schedule and templates

    The default schedule sends reminders 30/15/5 days before due, on the due date, and 5/15/30 days after. Adjust the days, channel (email/SMS/Viber) and approval requirement per stage, and edit the wording of all 11 notice templates with merge fields like {member_name} and {amount_due}. No code changes needed.

    Automated Notices → Reminder Schedule / Templates

  5. 5

    Generate and send notices

    Click “Generate notices” to scan every open receivable and queue the applicable notice for its current stage — duplicates are prevented automatically. Review the queue (cancel anything you don’t want), then click “Send queued notices”. Every send is archived in the Sent Log and on the account’s communication timeline. Note: until Email/SMS/Viber providers are configured in Settings, sends are recorded in mock mode and no real message leaves the system.

    Automated Notices → Generate / Send

  6. 6

    Post payments

    When a member pays, post the payment (or bulk-upload via Imports → Payments). The amount is allocated to open receivables oldest-first; fully settled receivables flip to Paid and their pending reminders are cancelled automatically. Partial payments are acknowledged and reminders continue on the balance.

    Payments → Post Payment

  7. 7

    Manage grace periods and suspensions

    Apply Grace Period, Temporary or Permanent Suspension from an account’s page when payment isn’t received; thresholds are configurable in Settings. Medical and Underwriting teams use the Suspensions page to check any member’s standing before approving availment.

    Account page → Suspension, or Suspensions

  8. 8

    Escalate to demand letter / legal when needed

    For chronic non-payment, click “Refer for demand letter review” on the account page. The Legal Escalations queue shows the outstanding balance, days overdue, notices sent and payment history. Each step needs supervisor approval — nothing legal is sent automatically.

    Account page → Legal Escalation, or Legal Escalations

  9. 9

    Track performance

    The Dashboard shows live KPIs (outstanding, collected this month, collection rate, suspensions, legal queue). Analytics adds aging buckets, monthly collection trends, reminder effectiveness per stage, and collector performance. Audit Logs keeps the complete change history.
