If your accounts payable (AP) process still relies on manual data entry, chasing down approvals, and sorting through stacks of paper invoices, you're leaving money on the table.
For businesses using Infor SyteLine, AP automation is a direct path to cutting costs and freeing up valuable resources. By reducing manual tasks, speeding up approvals, and improving accuracy, automation transforms AP from a repetitive back-office function into a streamlined, cost-saving operation.
But what’s the real return on investment (ROI) of automating AP with Infor SyteLine? Let’s break it down.
Many manufacturers underestimate how much their manual AP processes actually cost them. But a manual process doesn’t just affect your bottom line today; it can also affect how much your business can scale tomorrow.
Common factors limiting your AP team’s success include:
Automating your AP process has a direct impact on your bottom line. SyteLine users who implement AP automation solutions, like Nimbello, see significant improvements in cost savings and operational efficiency.
Here's how AP automation can improve your cash flow:
AP automation eliminates most of the labor-intensive tasks associated with manual invoice processing. Automated data capture, invoice matching, and digital approvals allow manufacturers to process invoices at a fraction of the cost.
With automation, invoices move through approval workflows quickly and efficiently, rather than sitting in someone’s inbox for days. This reduces processing time from weeks or days to hours or minutes, ensuring that every payment is on time and early payment discounts aren’t missed.
AP automation solutions like Nimbello integrate directly with Infor SyteLine, automatically matching invoices with purchase orders and receipts. This prevents overpayments, duplicate invoices, and manual data entry mistakes that can cost businesses thousands of dollars each year.
Faster, more accurate payments mean suppliers get paid on time, every time. This can lead to better vendor terms and fewer disputes. Strengthening vendor relationships can also open the door for exclusive deals and discounts that can cut costs and boost your bottom line.
Automated AP solutions provide accurate, up-to-date insights into your overall cash flow, including upcoming payments and expenses. This allows for better forecasting, so your business can make smarter financial decisions and save you money.
Implementing an AP automation solution reduces the workload on your staff, leading to happier employees and less team member turnover. You’ll save costs by eliminating the need for consistent overtime or hiring extra team members, while your team can shift their focus from data entry and chasing approvals to more strategic work that improves job satisfaction.
