At a glance

Per-customer outstanding AR as percent of credit limit. High utilisation predicts upcoming credit-hold orders. Predictive risk view.

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. Snapshot 14 Apr 26. Five things to notice:
  1. 4 customers over 85% threshold. Each is one large order away from credit hold.
  2. Action options: expand credit limit (if customer is healthy) or push collections to free up.
  3. Revenue at risk: if these customers cannot order, expected forward revenue declines.
  4. Pair with DSO trend for predictive horizon.
  5. Track velocity: rising utilisation week-over-week is the leading signal.
