Accounts Payable Without the Bottlenecks

Most AP teams process somewhere between 200 and 800 invoices per month, yet still rely on email chains and spreadsheets to track approvals. The gap between volume and tooling creates predictable problems: duplicate payments, missed early-payment discounts, and audits that take 3 days instead of 3 hours.

Where the time actually goes

Roughly 60% of AP processing time is spent on data entry, routing, and chasing approvals rather than on review or decision-making. Automating those 3 steps alone changes the workload significantly.

During this webinar, we walk through a real AP setup used by a mid-size manufacturing company with 14 cost centers. You will see how they configured approval thresholds, exception handling, and vendor communication inside a single workflow without replacing their existing ERP.

What we cover in 90 minutes

The session focuses on 4 workflow stages: invoice capture, matching, approval routing, and payment scheduling. Each stage gets a before-and-after walkthrough with specific tool configurations shown on screen.

We also spend 20 minutes on common failure points, including what happens when a vendor sends a PDF that does not match the PO and how to handle that without manual intervention.

Participants from our previous cohort noted that the matching logic section alone changed how they structured their vendor onboarding process.

No prior automation experience is needed. If you manage or work inside an AP function and feel like the process has too many steps, this session is built for you.
