Live Webinar: The AP Buy-In: Justifying Software That Covers IT All
2025-06-12 12:00 - 13:00 (America/Los_Angeles)
Financial automation system selection isn’t your call. You might think that it should be. But, your IT department will have the final say.

The answer will probably be no if they think the software is difficult to deploy and maintain. They may also have strict requirements for easy integration with your ERP and the cloud. And if you want to transact in and store customer payment information, applicable security standards might make them think twice.

When your AP simplicity is IT’s headache, functionality doesn’t even matter. So, it’s imperative that you increase the depth and breadth of your accounts payable automation capabilities without adding complexity to your tech stack.

Attend our FREE webinar to learn more about why and how to standardize on a single software covering the entire AP and expense lifecycle that easily integrates with your existing IT infrastructure.
