What Is Collections Management?
The Collections module is built for dietitian practices to record, track, and report payments they receive from clients.
Important note: Vitena does not collect payments; it only records the ones you collect yourself. Clients pay you with cash, card, bank transfer, or online (e.g. iyzico, Stripe), and you add a record into Vitena.

Dashboard Analytics
The collections dashboard visualizes your practice's cash flow with charts:
- Summary Stats: Total paid, pending, and cancelled amounts
- Daily Trend Chart: Stacked bar chart showing Paid/Pending/Cancelled status
- Payment Method Distribution: Doughnut chart by method (cash share, card share, etc.)
- Currency Selection: Pick the currency shown in charts
CSV and Excel Export
Export to your accountant with one click:

When you apply filters, only filtered records are exported — so you can generate monthly or per-client reports easily.
