As Managed Service Providers (MSPs), ensuring smooth financial operations is integral to a successful and sustainable business. One vital aspect of financial management within the MSP realm is billing reconciliation. But what does it entail, and how can it be optimized for the benefit of the MSP and its clients?
In simple terms, billing reconciliation is the process of cross-verifying usage records to ensure accuracy and consistency between the services provided and the corresponding client agreements. This entails matching what was promised to the client with what was actually delivered, confirming that every service has been appropriately billed.
