Lockbox Item Processing Hold Over Rate
KPI Details
Lockbox Item Processing Hold Over Rate measures the number of payments not processed on the same day they were received in relation to the total number of payments received over the same period of time. A relatively high value for this metric is typically related to a few common factors, including highly manual (i.e., error and rework prone) lockbox processes and procedures (e.g., manual documentation scanning and data entry, etc.), general inefficiencies within lockbox processes (e.g., untimely documentation scanning, inefficient backup processes concerning lockbox data, sub-par lockbox activity supervision, poor customer communications concerning which lockbox would be more efficient for the customer, etc.), and sub-par lockbox employee training and performance. Each of these factors can increase customer frustration and attrition rates.
KPI Definition
The number of payments not processed on the same day they were received divided by the total number of payments received over the same period of time, as a percentage.
KPI Best Practices
- Document payments that are not processed on same day to identify root causes
- Set targets for payment processing times and monitor trends over time
- Implement straight-through processing to minimize manual intervention
