| **Tax treatment**       | Gross.                                                                                                                                                                    |

## Calculation

Calculated automatically from your Oracle ERP Cloud data. See the At a glance summary above for what the metric tracks and the worked example below for a typical reading.

## Worked example

A US Fortune 500 distributor on Oracle ERP Cloud. 30-day window 14 Mar 26 to 12 Apr 26.

| Period       | Cash Collected | vsP   |
| ------------ | -------------- | ----- |
| This period  | \$186,200,000  | -3.1% |
| Prior period | \$192,200,000  |       |

Five things to notice:

1. \*\*$186M collected in 30 days** vs $232M revenue invoiced for the same window. The ratio (cash / revenue) is 80% on a 30-day window, consistent with Net-30 terms and 50-day DSO (cash today reflects revenue from \~50 days ago).
2. **3.1% drop vsP, well within the 15% alert threshold.** Normal noise. If this drop persists 2-3 periods running, look at [DSO](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/oracle-erp/days-sales-outstanding).
3. **Channel mix:** lockbox (auto) \~65%, ACH \~20%, wires \~10%, credit card \~5%. Healthy automation rate.
4. **Cross-reference [Cash Application Rate](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/oracle-erp/cash-application-rate):** cash collected and successfully applied at 88% means \$20M is in the unapplied / on-account queue.
5. **Trend matters most:** cash collected vs invoiced revenue for the same period gives the rolling collection efficiency.

## Sibling cards merchants should reference together

| Card                                                                                | Why pair it with Cash Collected       |
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
| [DSO](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/oracle-erp/days-sales-outstanding)                    | Long-run efficiency.                  |
| [Invoiced Revenue](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/oracle-erp/invoiced-revenue)             | Numerator on the booking side.        |
| [Cash Applied Today](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/oracle-erp/oerp-cash-applied-today)    | Daily intraday view.                  |
| [Cash Application Rate](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/oracle-erp/cash-application-rate)   | Process efficiency.                   |
| [Revenue Booked into GL](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/oracle-erp/revenue-booked-into-gl) | Spread to cash = working-capital lag. |

## Reconciling against the vendor's own dashboard

**Where to look in Oracle ERP Cloud:**

> **Receivables → Reports → Receipts Register**
> **OTBI → Receivables Receipts Real Time** filtered by date range
> **Cash Management → Bank Reconciliation** for bank-side parity

**Why our number may legitimately differ:**

| Reason                               | Direction | Why                                                                         |
| ------------------------------------ | --------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Receipt date vs application date** | Either    | Card uses application date. Receipts received but not applied are excluded. |
| **Multi-currency translation**       | Small     | Reporting-currency conversion.                                              |

**Cross-connector reconciliation:**

| Card                    | Notes                                                           |
| ----------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Stripe / PayPal payouts | Card-payment receipts that flow Stripe→bank→Oracle Receivables. |
| Bank statements         | Match daily total to bank deposit total.                        |

## Known limitations / merchant FAQs

**Why does cash collected lag invoiced revenue by \~30-50 days?**
Net-30 terms means typical receipt 30 days after invoice plus collection slippage. Healthy.

**Includes credit-card receipts processed via Oracle Payments?**
Yes by default. Stripe/PayPal-routed payments flow through to Oracle Receivables when settled.

**Multi-Ledger view?**
Yes via filter.

**Why does this differ from bank deposits?**
Timing. Cash received in bank vs cash applied in AR can differ by 1-3 days while the cash-app team processes.
