Worked example

A US Fortune 500 industrial distributor on Oracle ERP Cloud. Snapshot at 4pm Eastern on 14 Apr 26. Five things to notice:
  1. 6Mdayishealthyfora6M day is healthy for a 900M-revenue distributor (about 2−3M/dayaverage;spikesto2-3M / day average; spikes to 8-10M on Friday Net-30 cycle days).
  2. Lockbox dominates ($3.82M, 63%). This is the auto-matched flow; bank-side OCR captures remittance and Oracle’s Cash Application program applies on schedule.
  3. Wire ($640K) needed manual application. Wires often have minimal remittance data; the cash team has to look up the customer, identify which invoices the payment covers, and manually apply.
  4. Daily trend matters more than single-day: comparing today’s $6M against the trailing 30D average tells you whether collections are accelerating or slowing.
  5. Pair with DSO: strong daily cash-applied days reduce DSO over the rolling 90D window.

Reconciling against the vendor’s own dashboard

Where to look in Oracle ERP Cloud:
Receivables → Manage Receipts filter Application Date = today, Status = APPLIED OTBI → Receivables Receipts Real Time
Why our number may legitimately differ: Cross-connector reconciliation: This card sums Oracle-side cash applied. The corresponding bank-side feed (via Oracle Cash Management) should match within a day’s settlement.

​
Known limitations / merchant FAQs

Why might today be zero? Bank holiday, weekend, or lockbox feed delay. Pair with Cash Collected 30D for context. Includes Cash Sales (POS receipts)? Configurable. Default: includes both AR cash receipts and any direct Cash Receipts entered. Cross-Business-Unit, can I see per-BU? Yes via dashboard filter. Time zone, how is “today” defined? Workspace timezone; configurable per dashboard.
