AccountScout provides the capability to manage commercial customer and private party receivables separately. Commercial customers purchase retail display ads, classified ads, circulars, and other miscellaneous products you sell. You can send a single integrated bill in the form of a statement or invoice at various intervals.

Private party clients usually purchase advertising less frequently in the form of classified advertising. Typically, with these clients, you require prepayment, although statements can be printed when needed.

By distinguishing between commercial and private party clients, AccountScout helps you focus your collection efforts on one or the other, without the need to sort through a report showing all advertisers.
