• Compliant Ledger Corrections: Calculate, stage, and physically execute precise credit memos, debit adjustments, and reverse incorrect entries within the billing system.
• Cash Application Reconstruction: Audit historical bank deposit logs, wire transfers, and customer remittance files to identify and reallocate misapplied funds if any
• Policy & Control Architecture: Collaborate directly with the AR Supervisor to draft, build, and deploy new Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
