Communicate with customer contacts to clarify and resolve settlement-related issues promptly. Maintain accurate and organized records of all settlement documentation, correspondence, and adjustments. Monitor outstanding settlements and follow up to ensure timely reporting and resolution. Document all actions taken to address claims or disputes and ensure closure prior to invoice due dates. Provide regular updates to internal stakeholders regarding account status, open issues, and aging settlements. Support monthly and year-end closing by ensuring settlements are properly recorded. Assist in proactive collection efforts for overdue payments when necessary. Ensure adherence to internal policies and support process improvements related to settlement and deduction management.
