Accounts Payable automation (AP automation) includes the technology used to help improve and streamline accounts payable processes by automating them. AP Automation removes time-consuming manual tasks and provides increased visibility and control over invoice management.
Businesses with an automated accounts payable process save on paper, computing resources, and vendor fees from lost invoices and human error. Furthermore, IT staff and accountants save time when they no longer have to pull data together from fragmented sources.
With Concur Invoice, your organisation can:
By eliminating manual data entry and switching to a fully automated, cloud-based AP process, you can cut costs, save time, and cut down on data capture errors. Concur Invoice lets you capture invoices electronically using optical character recognition (OCR) technology, uses two- and three-way matching to pair the PO to its associated invoice, then accurately records it to your AP system.
Easy-to-use web-based and mobile applications help you to streamline your AP processes, from on-the-go authorization to supplier payment. With the SAP Concur mobile app, you can match invoices with purchase orders, track progress of submitted invoices, and expedite approvals and payments—anytime, anywhere.
Business intelligence tools give you greater visibility into how employees are spending and help you better forecast cash flow, time payments, and identify additional vendor savings and discounts allowing you to make intelligent decisions with your financial data. You can also see when accounts were reconciled, run accounts payable aging reports, and get insights you need to make better business decisions.
Concur Invoice integrates with any ERP or accounting system and connects with solutions from other vendors across the procure-to-pay lifecycle. You can also tailor your solution to handle your company’s unique AP workflows and policies.
