There’s nothing particularly buzz-worthy about billing cycles. They neither headline business periodicals nor spur exciting water-cooler discussions. But a slow billing cycle ties up company money in a web of unpredictable the-job-was-completed-but-payment-hasn’t-been-received waiting. But, it doesn’t have to be that way. Because billing cycles have a direct, measurable effect on a company’s cash flow and monetary control, they are worthy of serious attention and focus for company executives.

- The ability to make specific billing choices, methods, and structures for each project or customer and then generate invoices automatically or on demand

Business management software should make every facet of managing a business easier and more automated.
