Why manual accounts payable doesn’t work anymore

The traditional accounts payable (AP) process is inefficient. 

From the moment an invoice is received to the moment a payment is sent, AP teams spend hours on manual, tedious tasks that take time away from more impactful projects. AP automation is the strategic way to improve the speed, accuracy and effectiveness of your team’s workflow. 

In this guide, you’ll learn: 

  • Where problems arise in a manual AP process

  • How automation streamlines the AP process, even as you scale 

  • How AP solutions work together with your Enterprise Resource Planning systems 

If you’re a finance leader or AP team member who wants to save time and ease your existing processes with automation, this guide is for you.
