Introduction to Order-to-Cash (OTC)#

Order-to-Cash, often abbreviated as OTC, is an essential business process that starts when a customer places an order and ends when the payment is received and recorded. It encompasses a series of steps like order creation, fulfillment, invoicing, and payment collection. Let’s break it down into these seven key sub-processes:

  • Customer Engagement: How you interact with your customers.
  • Order Entry: Taking and logging the customer’s order.
  • Order Fulfillment: Filling the order either digitally or physically.
  • Distribution: Logistics and shipping of the order.
  • Invoicing: Generating a bill for the customer.
  • Payment Collection: Receiving money from the customer.
  • Receipt Recording: Documenting the received payment.

Why is Order-to-Cash Important?#

The OTC process is crucial for many businesses because it represents the entire customer experience, from initial contact to final payment. Companies often use ERP systems like SAP to streamline this process. These systems not only automate various tasks but also perform essential functions like credit checks, availability checks, and so on.
