These are the top three ways to use ERP software to manage AP:

• Invoice Automation

One of the most effective ways the accounts payable process is improved with an ERP system is by automating invoice management. 

An ERP system streamlines the process of capturing the invoice, matching it, approving it, and sending the payment without the need for manual data entry. With automation, invoices are processed faster and accurately, which ensures suppliers are paid on time and without error.

• Match and Track Orders

Matching invoices, POs, and the actual delivered product becomes seamless with the ERP implementation. Mentioning order details in cloud software keeps the data accessible from every device and beats the general ledger by a great margin. 

For example, Business A uses traditional ledgers and accounting systems. This creates a dependency on a manual workforce, and there’s no central database for stakeholders in another state. Business B uses an automated AP process to reduce manual dependency and improve financial reporting. 

• Centralize Supplier Management

The details of your suppliers and vendors can be stored in one spot and can be accessed by your teammates as well. These details help you to manage multiple suppliers and provide payment reminders with precision to avoid penalties.
