How it works

AP Automation in Action

Automating accounts payable is simple when you eliminate paper from the equation. Digital capture of documents at the start of their life cycle eliminates the costs and challenges associated with paper management. Automated workflows control invoice information and payment approvals from end-to-end, resulting in faster payments, enhanced visibility, and improved accuracy and compliance.

Enter

Digital capture of invoices can be done through various methods such as scanning, emailing, SMS forwarding, or data extraction.

Approve

Automated workflows route invoice data to approvers while validation and matching activities maintain data integrity and document accuracy.

Pay

After approval, invoices are promptly sent for payment through automated routing, leading to a significant reduction in payment processing time, from weeks to days, or even hours.

Sync

The integrated accounting system automatically receives invoice details, removing the need for manual data entry and ensuring real-time financial data.

AP Teams

Unleashing the Potential of AP Teams

AP automation can have benefits beyond just financial cost savings. The repetitive and tedious nature of manual AP processes can lead to employee burnout and reduced job satisfaction. Tasks such as vendor validation, GL coding, and seeking approvals can become monotonous and demotivating for staff.

By implementing AP automation, your accounts team can shift from mundane data entry and validation tasks to more strategic and value-added activities. This allows your team members to utilize their skills and knowledge for more challenging tasks, attracting and retaining top talent, fostering innovation, and building specialized skills for your organization.

We often joke that FileBound will increase the users joy by 24%!

“The implementation of FileBound has provided many benefits. It has made the accounts payable staff more productive and reduced their stress which has increased their wellbeing. We often joke that FileBound will increase the users joy by 24%! It has meant we could handle the increased work volume without increasing the number of staff”. Many users do in fact comment how this system is so much better, is more efficient, has increased transparency, saves time and that invoices can be approved on just about any internet connected device, anywhere. Which is great when dealing with teachers and staff who may not be on campus”.
