How should this past due notices be used?
An invoice is typically due within 30 days. Under this typical scenario:
(a) If the invoice is 7-30 days past due, send a friendly reminder notice using this First Past Due Notice.
(b) If the customer still does not pay the invoice, and the invoice become 30-60 days past due, send the Second Past Due Notice (Immediate Attention Requested).
(c) If the customer still does not pay after having received several requests for payment and the invoice is over 90 days past due, send a final demand for payment notice using the Demand for Payment (Urgent – Final Notice). The final demand notifies the customer that the account will be turned over for collection or legal action will be taken if the past due amount is not paid within 7 business days.
