Use cases

Written for the way Indian finance teams actually work.

Several legal entities on one ledger. Payment runs that ignore your due date. Deductions raised without advice. Auditors who need evidence but must not be able to change anything. Arlens is shaped around those facts rather than around an idealised order-to-cash diagram.

How it works

Import to clear, without leaving the system.

Five steps from the sales register to a cleared invoice with an ERP document number against it.

  1. Import

    Sales register from Excel or a nightly ERP sync. Validation runs row by row before anything is committed.

  2. Despatch

    Invoice out with proof of delivery attached, logged against the invoice with date, channel and recipient.

  3. Pursue

    Dunning ladders, a ranked worklist, promises to pay, and disputes routed to the function that owns them.

  4. Match

    Bank credit meets the remittance advice. Deductions are coded, TDS separated, unadvised variances flagged.

  5. Clear

    A balanced clearing entry posts to the ERP and the invoices come off the ledger with a document number against them.

The business case

What a day of DSO is worth to you.

Receivables software is bought on one number: cash released, against what it costs to run. Here is the arithmetic on a mid-sized book — run it on your own figures before you believe it.

Modelled on a ₹1,000 crore book billing ₹83 crore a month at 55 days DSO. One day of DSO on that book is ₹2.7 crore of cash. The ranges come from the levers Arlens instruments — invoice delivery lag, cash application, dispute routing, promise discipline — not from a claimed customer average. Your own baseline decides the outcome, and the pilot measures it before you commit.
