If you are an executive at a small or mid-sized business, chances are you are in the process of putting together a budget for 2024, or have already done so. As part of that budget, you have likely made some accommodation for your accounts receivable (AR), probably in the form of a Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) objective based on past performance.

Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A), which includes forecasting and budgeting, has evolved significantly from the days when finance teams used to spend days with paper records to tirelessly compile data from disparate paper records and create operating plans and budgets.
