Automated Versapay Credit Hold Recommendations

Every morning, WebRun opens Versapay, evaluates all active accounts against your credit hold criteria (days overdue, balance threshold, broken promises), logs each recommendation in a Google Sheet, and posts a Slack alert to your credit team so they can approve holds before more orders ship to high-risk customers.

In short

How do I automatically flag accounts for credit hold review using Versapay?

Every morning, WebRun evaluates all active accounts in Versapay against your credit hold criteria, such as 30-plus days overdue or repeated broken promises. It logs each recommended hold in Google Sheets and posts a Slack alert to your credit team with the full list, so human approvers can act before the next order ships to a high-risk customer.

  • High-risk accounts flagged before new orders add more exposure
  • Credit team reviews a ranked recommendation list in minutes each morning
  • No hold applied without explicit human approval

Questions, answered

Does it apply the credit hold automatically?

No. WebRun only flags and recommends. Placing a customer on credit hold requires explicit approval from your credit team. The Slack alert and Google Sheet are designed to make that human decision fast and informed.

What criteria trigger a credit hold recommendation?

By default: any invoice overdue by more than 30 days, a total overdue balance above your set threshold, or two broken payment promises in the past 60 days. You can adjust all three thresholds to match your credit policy.

Will it notify the customer that they are flagged?

No. This is an entirely internal workflow. No communication is sent to customers. Any customer notification about a credit hold is a separate, human-approved step.

Put this on autopilot.
