Third-party software tools are supposed to make it easier for your AP team to do their jobs, but trying to manage workflows in several places at once can be confounding.

Want to streamline your AP team’s workflows, consolidate tasks into a single platform, and process more invoices in less time? Don’t miss our upcoming coffee chat, at 1 p.m. CT on Friday, July 19, with our in-house AP Automation experts.

In a perfect world, buying the goods and services that your organization needs should be seamless and simple. The problem is that it can be tedious and time-consuming to find what you need, track spend, manually enter requisition data into your system, and route all of that information for your Accounts Payable team to process. Want to automate your organization's procurement process and the way supplier invoices are processed? Don't miss our next coffee chat at 1 p.m. CT on Thursday, June 27, where our partners at Order.co will explain how procure-to-pay automation can work in lockstep with touchless processing for supplier invoices.

Accounts payable is like competitive rowing — when everyone’s movements are synchronized and moving in the same direction, the team can travel great distances quickly. 🚣🚣♀️🚣♀️ If each person in the boat is only focused on their task and moving at their own pace, the team must work harder to reach their destination. The same can be true for decentralized AP teams that use different software solutions and have their own processes and workflows. If this sounds familiar, don’t miss our live coffee chat at 1 p.m. CT tomorrow, where we’ll discuss ways to optimize your AP operations. In collaboration with Stormloop Technologies, a leading provider of Workday advisory, planning, and support services, we'll explore the challenges organizations encounter with decentralized AP, procurement, and settlement functions.
