When dealing with individual service user fees that can run to thousands of pounds per week, just a small fraction of underpayments or overpayments will soon add up to a lot of money.
If you don’t monitor and control your fee income effectively, you could be undercharging or overcharging for fees received from private individuals, local authorities, health boards, charities and insurance companies alike. Unfortunately (and for whatever reason), people often make mistakes when making payments.
Using spreadsheets, accounting packages or paper based systems is time consuming, frustrating and error prone, so in addition to being slow and expensive, the payments you receive may still be be incorrect.
