The accounts payable process is notorious for being manual-task oriented, requiring multiple steps and a multitude of stakeholder approvals. Traditional AP processes are usually rife with bottlenecks, lag time, errors, failed handoffs, and inaccurate reporting.
If your current accounts payable operations are challenged by complex processes and inefficiencies that hinder business growth, it’s time to consider investing in or upgrading your current accounts payable operations.
Accounts payable workflow software is, simply put, a system used for financial and accounting processes. It helps automate repetitive manual accounting tasks, streamlines your AP processes, and transform invoice handling into a fully digitized and automated process.
Implementing AP automation might feel intimidating for various reasons, such as lack of knowledge regarding software and resources, staff resistance, or just the general (very common) fear of change.
Unfortunately, rejecting AP automation not only hinders business growth and progress but also comes with an increased risk for fraud and reduced profitability.
Integrating an AP workflow software in your business has become a competitive necessity, reducing the AP department’s workload and streamlining data entry, invoice processing, and approval workflows. It allows AP teams to focus on more important tasks such as exception handling and analysis.
With automated accounts payable processes you can scale the AP department without adding to headcount, eliminate the errors from manual tasks and streamline accounts payable financial operations.
“We just didn’t have time to manage all the incoming invoices. But since changing to Rillion, we can manage three times the volume of invoices than our previous AP system allowed.”
Duplicated supplier invoices, changes in suppliers, or purchase order details all risk compromising your payment processes. AP managers want to avoid under or over paying for vendor invoices.
AP workflow software checks for these details automatically. Make timely payments and retain trusted vendor and supplier relationships.
Rillion’s accounts payable workflow software introduces digitized invoices and purchase orders, automatic PO-matching, flexible approval workflows, and fully automated AP processes on a single platform.
With fewer paper processes and an automated workflow your accounts payable staff can focus on more high value tasks.
Without adequate data or knowledge of what to look for, AP fraud can be very difficult to detect and prevent. In AFPs 2021 Payments Fraud and Control Survey Report, 74% of the companies surveyed admitted they’d been targets of payment scams.
These frauds are performed through false billing, fraudulent checks, overpayments, and wrongful manual data entry. These incidences can be prevented through accounts payable workflow automation.
Functions such as intelligent data capture, invoice approval workflows, automated PO matching and a time-stamped audit trail reduce the risk of fraudulent activity.
Late or outstanding debts can damage business reputations. Vendors may be less willing to deliver or might terminate their business altogether. Early payments motivate vendors and allow you to capitalize on early-payment discounts.
