Start With Eligibility And Transaction Records
Before preparing a delayed payment claim, arrange Udyam registration details, enterprise name, buyer name, GST details if relevant, invoice list, purchase orders, work orders, delivery records and payment history.
Prepare An Invoice-Wise Summary
A useful summary usually identifies invoice number, invoice date, amount, due date, goods or services supplied, delivery proof, part payment, unpaid balance and the latest communication from the buyer.
Preserve Communications
Payment reminders, email acknowledgements, WhatsApp messages, ledger confirmations, balance confirmations, debit notes, quality objections and settlement communications should be saved in a readable sequence.
