Julia,
We?ve definitely had clients that pay late habitually. In the past I?ve had to pester them and, unfortunately, we?ve never charged a late fee. However, OSU has switched to a centralized invoicing system so all invoices are sent from the same address and payment is made centrally. It?s good in that they do the follow-up on late bills by sending dunning letters and sending them to university collections, which usually gets people to act. The problem is that if it goes to collections and gets collected, we get charged a collection fee and they still don?t charge the client a fee, so we eat it. I try to keep an eye on things and notify late payers before it goes to internal collections at 90 days just to avoid that charge that they don?t pass on to the client. The funny thing is that the invoices state that they can charge late fees as did my invoices when I invoiced directly.
?Finance charges and/or late fees may apply after the due date listed above?
I?m still waiting for central AR to start that.
Not much of an answer but it?s where we?re at.

Hello everyone. We have a few external clients that are habitual late payers for their invoices. How does your facility deal with these late payers? I?m thinking of applying an interest payment after a certain time period similar to credit
Hello everyone. We have a few external clients that are habitual late payers for their invoices.
How does your facility deal with these late payers? I?m thinking of applying an interest payment after a certain time period similar to credit card companies, but I want to hear what others do to encourage clients to pay on time.
Cheers!

Hi Everyone,
We were recently told Baker is discontinuing PRS3000. Just curious what metal friendly PR solvent strippers others are using. We ordered some Technic Micro D2 and MLO 07 to try out.
Thanks for any input
Cheers,

Subject: [labnetwork] Dektak 3030 ST stylus issues
Message-ID: <56f502e3581a0ec5723bdadf1153754d@inesc-mn.pt>
Dear all,
our lab still has a Dektak 3030ST profilometer and we are having issues
with the stylus. First it would go down and wouldn't go up, then I
managed to get it working for a few measurements and know we have the
opposite problem: the stylus won't go down.
Plus I moved the optics to see if the sytlus would go up (or down, now
that it is in an upper position), but the scan head doesn't move at all.
Does naybody have any idea what this could be due to?
Thanks
Virginia
