Purpose of the plan To give the accounts receivable clerk clear expectations, support and time to bring invoicing speed and accuracy up to the standard of the role. Gaps and evidence 1. Invoice timing: invoices went out on average 6 days after delivery. The standard is 2 days. 2. Coding accuracy: three coding errors were made in March. The standard allows no more than 2 a month. Expectations 1. Send invoices within 2 days of delivery. Measured by the weekly invoice report. 2. Make no more than 2 coding errors in any month. Measured by the monthly finance review. Support offered - Weekly coaching with the team lead (team lead). - Two half-day sessions with the senior clerk on coding and invoice flow (senior clerk). Check-in schedule Weekly for 60 days. At each meeting, review the invoice report, discuss anything blocking progress and record agreed actions in a short note shared with the employee. Review at the end After 60 days, compare results with the two expectations. Outcome if expectations are met or not met: Not stated, follow the company process. Questions for HR before sharing - Does company policy set a required format or length for this plan? - Who attends the first meeting, and may the employee bring a companion? - Is a written warning already on file, and does it need to be referenced? - Have local employment rules been checked for this stage? Review this outline with someone who knows your local employment rules before it is given to the employee.
