The following are applicable to Commercial Accounts billing:
- All Commercial Accounts must be billed the day after service.
- All Commercial Accounts must be billed with a completed signed invoice.
- If there is a prior balance on the account, this should be put on a statement along with the current charge (signed invoice attached) and sent to the account.
- Commercial accounts should be contacted by the Branch Manager and Service Manager either by phone or in person on a regular basis to discuss service and billing with the persons in charge. If there is a problem, it should be corrected immediately so that the account can be billed properly.
- Always make sure billing information is correct on these accounts (contact person and address must be updated) so that bills and invoices get to the right place.
- Technicians should collect on all local commercial accounts, except those with special billing requirements.
