5 Defining AP Automation Automating the invoice payment process Invoice Capture: Receives paper or electronic invoices, captures important data, and inputs into a workflow or payment system Workflow/Approval: Routes invoice for approval Payment and Reconciliation: Processes vendor payments via a number of payment methods (AP Card, ACH, check, wire, Supply Chain Finance) Why the need? Companies looking to increase process efficiencies and reduce costs 5

9 What We re Hearing I want one throat to choke I have to reduce labor expenses associated with routing paper documents, manual faxing, manual scanning and ing of documents I don t want to do AP I want to manage it Too many touches can reach 20 times I may not know an invoice exists for days, weeks, or months Allow AP staff and others to focus on higher value and more strategic activities. The goal is to free up 50% of their current time for this I need to reduce my costs Everything is manual! Cost of manually processing, handling, approving and paying a paper invoice is $12.75 I can t control what I can t see! I want to gain new levels of efficiencies without adding personnel 9
10 Business Challenges Increasing overhead and processing costs Volumes increasing, unable to add to staff Cash flow management Little or no audit trail Unable to shift staff focus to analysis and strategy Industry/Government regulations 10
11 Manual AP Process Challenges Paper-intensive processes are slow and error prone Manual checks and ACH processing Multiple payment files for check, ACH, card Missed discounts and/or payment dates Need for increased security in accessing information Lack of visibility to invoices and their current status 11
12 Creating A Paperless & Profitable AP Department Using AP Automation Step 2: Identify your goals Understand the current AP environment Identify goals and requirements Map the current process Develop a payment strategy Identify the right solution to match your needs Calculate ROI Document the process & Activate the solution 12
13 Identify Goals And Requirements Process efficiencies Streamline invoice receipt, approval workflow, and exception handling Provide automated audit trail to meet regulations Reduce exception rates Cost savings/revenue improvement Eliminate costly paper-based processes Lower invoice processing and payment costs Take full advantage of AP discount opportunities Realize revenue opportunities from commercial card program Strategic impact Utilize immediate access to information for timely and accurate analysis Increase controls and enforce regulatory compliance 13
14 Becoming A Profit Center Develop a focused payment strategy Reduce costs to labor, paper, postage and check writing Capture early payment discounts Maximize revenue opportunity with commercial card program Leverage multiple payment options effectively Utilize Supply Chain Finance Control DPO with automated payment program Off-load escheatment process Utilize staff to higher analytical capacity Maximize ROI of AP department 14
