Accounts Payable is one of your organization's core accounting functions, but it may also be one of your biggest headaches.

Manual data entry, cumbersome PO matching, and tedious approvals can drive up your processing costs, not to mention overwhelming and overworking your staff.

If that's not bad enough, failure to pay invoices on time means missed discounts and late fees, and consistent failure can affect your credit rating and drive up borrowing costs. Poor tracking of invoice history and approvals complicates audits and opens the door to fraud, duplicate payments, contract leakage, and other compliance risks. And inefficiencies in AP processing make it difficult to manage your cash and maintain good vendor relations.
