Days Sales Outstanding Recheck

Recheck days sales outstanding against the figures that produce it. Preparation only, not an account action.

What to provide

The receivables, the credit sales and the day count used for the DSO figure.

How it works

1. Record receivables as used.
2. Record credit sales and the day count as used.
3. Recompute DSO as receivables divided by credit sales times the day count.
4. Return the recheck without changing the model.

The output

company | receivables | credit_sales | days | dso_recomputed | dso_quoted | verdict

Worked fictional example

Fictional company held receivables of 180 against credit sales of 1,095 over 365 days: recomputed DSO of 60 against a quoted 63, 3 days understated.

Checks and limits

Keep original values, source IDs and version dates. Unknown facts stay held. Use qualified review for hiring, legal and accounting conclusions. No send, share, sign-in, scheduling, ledger change or payment. Fictional contract review is not a live account compatibility test.
