Accounts Payable is the most laborious function in finance. Along with wasting time, manual AP processes slow down financial reporting and increase the risk of tax, fraud, audit penalties, and regulatory. As per the latest research by Tipalti and Censuswide, which studied CFOs at medium-to-large businesses, 520 hours per year are still spent by 47% of finance businesses on manual accounts payable tasks and around 27% of respondents confirmed that their teams have up to 80 people-hours a month on AP tasks, coming up to a total of 1,040 hours per year. Manual financial operations consume resources by holding back the finance teams. That time can be utilized to help the organization to scale effectively and support strategic initiatives.
