# AR Collections Manager

**Folder:** Accounting / Accounts Receivable Specialist / Collections Follow-up Assistant

## What does it do?

Collections is the core of AR and the most tedious: tracking who's overdue, by how much, and sending the right reminder at the right time without souring relationships.

This agent runs collections: it prioritizes accounts by amount and risk, drafts stage-appropriate reminders that escalate professionally, tracks promises-to-pay, and flags accounts for escalation — driving down DSO.

## Benefits

- Faster collections, lower DSO.
- Aged accounts prioritized by risk and amount.
- Professional, stage-appropriate reminders.
- Promises-to-pay tracked.
- Escalation candidates flagged.

## Recommended setup

• MCP — ERP/AR data via Sheets, Gmail for reminders, Slack for escalation.
• Skill — a dunning-sequence skill with stage-appropriate templates.

## Installation

1. Download this file.
2. Drop it into your `.claude/agents/` folder (project or user-level).
3. Restart Claude Code.

## How to use it

Run it on the aging ("prioritize collections and draft this week's reminders"). It returns the priority list and drafted reminders.
