What is financial relationship management?

Financial relationship management (FRM) is the way a B2B finance team runs accounts receivable as a customer relationship: every reminder, statement and fee follows what you know about that customer's payment history. It has four parts: customer context, segmentation, adaptive workflows, and finance, sales and support in step. Paidnice adds a fifth: enforcement of your terms. The term belongs to B2B accounts receivable, and is separate from the Financial Risk Manager qualification and from CRM for banks.

Every customer in one record.

Each contact carries a payment-history score from 1 to 100, next to the payment history, overdue balance, messages sent and notes on calls and disputes. An expected payment date sits on the invoice or the customer.

"It’s helped us issue late fees consistently and given us much better visibility over our debtors and overall debt tracking."

What an accounts receivable CRM does

Each customer group runs its own policy.

Group customers by payment behavior, size or risk, and run several policies at the same time. The message changes with the age of the invoice.

"The app is working perfectly! The grouping system has really made the difference."

Workflows that change with the account.

Reminders go by email and SMS, every action has an approval step, and collection pauses until an expected payment date. One disputed invoice comes out of a policy by its reference.

"One of the biggest advantages for me is being able to send all communications directly from my own domain, everything looks fully branded and professional, with delivery tracking built in."

Finance, sales and support in step.

Escalations go to a named person, mentions notify teammates, and late payment, an early sign of churn risk, reaches Slack or Microsoft Teams by webhook. Every message logs to HubSpot, Pipedrive or Salesforce by BCC.

CRM vs financial relationship management

A CRM manages the relationship before the sale. Financial relationship management manages it after the invoice, until the cash is in the bank. Most B2B businesses need both. Paidnice can log its messages to your CRM by BCC.

And accounts receivable automation? It sends the reminders, statements and fees. Financial relationship management decides which customer gets which treatment, and Paidnice runs both from the same ledger connection.

Financial relationship management: common questions

What is financial relationship management (FRM)?

Financial relationship management is the way a B2B business manages customers after the invoice is sent. It has four parts: customer context, segmentation, adaptive workflows, and finance, sales and support working from the same record. Paidnice adds enforcement of terms: late fees, interest, statements and escalation applied by rule.

What is CRM in finance?

A finance CRM holds what the finance team needs to know about each customer: open invoices, payment history, notes, call outcomes and promised payment dates. A sales CRM holds leads and deals. In Paidnice, every contact also carries a payment-history score from 1 to 100.

What is the difference between a CRM and FRM?

A CRM manages the relationship up to the sale. Financial relationship management starts at the invoice and ends when the invoice is paid. The user is the finance team, the data is the ledger, and the goal is revenue paid on time.

Do I need FRM software or accounts receivable automation?

If you sell on credit terms, you need both. Automation sends the reminders, statements and fees. Financial relationship management decides which customer gets which treatment. Paidnice does both from one connection to Xero or QuickBooks.

Does it replace my CRM?

No. Keep your sales CRM. Add a BCC address to a Paidnice sender profile and every reminder and statement is logged in HubSpot, Pipedrive or Salesforce, so sales can see the payment conversation.

Does it work with Xero and QuickBooks?

Yes. Paidnice connects to your Xero organisation or QuickBooks Online company. It picks up the invoices that are already open at connection, and every action has an approval step.

How much does it cost?
