What it means

As explained by Merchant Fund Express: The average number of days it takes a business to collect payment after a sale.

A rising number means customers are paying more slowly and more cash is tied up in receivables.

Why it matters when you apply

If your figure keeps climbing, a line of credit or factoring may help, or terms and collection may need attention.
