Order-to-Cash is a term describing the collection of processes a company has implemented between the receipt of an order and the receipt of payment (cash). The span of processes involved depends on the supply chain configuration and process strategy.

• Make-to-Stock supply chains: D1.
• Make-to-Order, Configure-to-Order and Assemble-to-Order supply chains: D2, M2, S2.
• Engineer-to-Order or Project supply chains: D3, D2, M3, M2, S3, S2.
• Reverse Logistics supply chains: D4, M4, S4.

The configuration of the supply chain (i.e. the number of successive locations with Deliver-to-Order, Make-to-Order, Source-to-Order processes, determines the actual processes included in the Order-to-Cash cycle.

Alternative names include: Order-To-Remittance cycle

Notes

The processes listed are incomplete as the final step in the Order-to-Cash process is the actual collection of funds. This process is a financial process outside of the scope of SCO.
