  Leo Gentry Wholesale Nursery

  • Accounts Receiveable/Credit Manager

    • Mar 2004 - Jan 2014

    My responsibilities in the accounting department at Leo Gentry Nursery include receivables and payables. Most of my time is spent in the receivables area. I am responsible for everything from determining credit worthiness, to supervising collection of past due accounts. I apply payments, reconcile customer accounts, and work with customers when there are quality problems. We use Quick Books Enterprise for our receivables and payables. I have trained several people for the accounts payable position in the years I have been with the Nursery. Currently I share the accounts payable duties with another person. I process customer requests for plant material credits. I work with customers who have billing questions in order to clarify questions to help them make timely payment of their invoices. I also research debit memos from some of the larger clients and reconcile the accounts. I trained and work closely with our accounts payable clerk, and serve as back up to that position. During shipping season I help with invoicing and signing out the truck drivers who deliver our product. I am responsible for ordering office supplies for the office. Using Pitney Bowes Smart Mailer software, I have prepared the mailing list for several pre sorted mailings each year. I use Microsoft Excel and Word extensively. I help people in the accounting and other departments learn to prepare and use spreadsheets and many of the features in Word. I prepare monthly statements and do collection follow up with customers who are past due. I process all credit card payments. I am back up for EDI (Electronic data interchange) billing. I work closely with the company sales representatives to clear credit limit, billing or other issues with their customers. I am responsible for credit application review and determining the credit worthiness of applicants. I review the credit standing of all customers prior to their orders being shipped.
