Supercharge Your AP Invoice Processing with Cloud Capture Technology
Collect. Extract. Validate. Accelerate.
Processing invoices quickly is crucial – for a myriad of reasons. Angry phone calls, late payment penalties, damaged relationships, and inaccurate payments can all lead to business strife. Even worse, they can put your supply chain at risk, making it difficult to fulfill orders and accurately forecast cash flow.
Why isn’t it easier? Because collecting, processing, and paying invoices is especially challenging when they arrive by all sorts of different delivery channels – including snail mail. And although counterintuitive, e-mailed invoices aren’t much better. They can still get lost, misdelivered, or accidentally deleted. Plus, without the right technology, employees still need manually input invoice data which can lead to costly errors and delays.
With all this tedious manual labor, it’s no surprise that accounts payable staff lack the time to focus on other higher value tasks, such as conducting AP data analysis, optimizing cash flow, or building key supplier relationships.
Invoice Processing Challenges
High costs
Labor cost is the single biggest contributor to bloated invoice processing budgets.
Inefficient processes
Time wasted on keying in invoice data is time that could be spent on higher value tasks.
Slow cycle times
Manually handling AP invoice data costs businesses money by drastically slowing down approvals.
Inaccurate payments
Error-filled data costs time as well as money and strains supplier relationships.
Poor scalability
Manual processes don’t scale easily to flex with business growth or seasonal fluctuations.
