## How Infoveave Implemented Customer Billing Assistance System

Infoveave implemented a centralized automation and monitoring layer that seamlessly connected the CRM and Billing systems into a single, governed workflow. The platform automated eligibility identification, credit application tracking, reconciliation, and exception monitoring, supported by real-time dashboards for operational visibility.

By consolidating data across systems and highlighting failure points, Infoveave enabled business, operations, and billing teams to manage the initiative with confidence. The solution reduced manual effort, improved data accuracy, accelerated issue resolution, and ensured that eligible customers consistently received the intended billing relief.

An automated workflow was deviced to achieve the desired result.

### End-to-End Billing Assistance Credit Application Workflow

To ensure timely and accurate billing relief, the energy provider implemented a structured, automated process to deliver billing assistance credits to eligible customers impacted by invoice price changes. Credits are issued only after customer interaction, ensuring controlled, complaint, and targeted support.

The process is designed to ensure that only eligible customers receive the correct credit amount, with full traceability across CRM and Billing systems.

**Step 1: Identify Eligible Customers**

Customers impacted by invoice price changes are automatically identified and flagged in the CRM based on predefined eligibility rules.

**Step 2: Verify on Customer Contact**

When customers reach out, agents instantly verify eligibility and credit amount using CRM alerts and notes

**Step 3: Trigger Credit Request**

A CRM case is created to securely record the request and initiate the billing assistance credits workflow.

**Step 4: Apply & Reconcile Credits**

The Billing System applies the correct $100 or $200 credit, updates records, clears alerts and closes the case – ensuring accuracy and traceability.

* **Duplicate products:** Accounts flagged to prevent applying credits twice.
* **Alert Removal in CRM System:** Pending billing assistance flags that still need to be cleared in CRM system.
