Where does We Energies compliance usually get stuck?
Most utility billing failures happen when invoice formats and remittance processing are managed separately from ERP financials.
Payment orders and remittance detail must map precisely to invoice numbers so cash application posts without manual matching.
Unprocessed 812 adjustments and 824 advisories leave billing disputes unresolved and distort accounts receivable balances.
