Best Practices in Invoice Processing

Learn how to reduce cost and gain techniques to add value to your organization through advancing and optimizing invoice processing functions.

Accounts Payable (AP) departments can often be ignored, with the only expectation being they continue to process paper invoices as they have for years. New Enterprise Resource Systems (ERP) often bring technology advances, but there's so much more that leaders can do to turn a department known for their mundane, repetitive functions into providing strategic support to any organization. This course can help AP staff better understand their importance in the organization and provide them with invoice processing best practices. AP leaders will receive insight into the latest advances in technologies and operating procedures to advance the performance and importance of AP in their organizations. You will also learn how to reduce cost and gain techniques to add value to your organization through advancing and optimizing invoice processing functions.

  • You will be able to recognize strategies for invoice processing best practices.
