New Corcentric Blog: Calculate ROI to Convince Your CFO

(1888 PressRelease) Instead of talking about how automation and e-invoicing creates efficiencies in accounts payable, show your CFO the real ROI.

McLean, VA - Corcentric, a leading provider of Accounts Payable automation and e-invoicing solutions, knows that sometimes the main obstacle to implementing an AP workflow automation solution is convincing the CFO that the benefits outweigh the costs.

Corcentric cites a recently published survey which indicates that CFO's make cutting costs their highest priority and upgrading systems and processes among their lowest. The inverse is true for AP managers, as is evidenced in a TAPN study, which is also cited.

Corcentric suggests that AP managers will have a much easier time convincing the CFO and other senior finance executives that there is great value in workflow automation if they can actually see convincing ROI. Being able to illustrate how a solution can cut costs, improve cash flow, capture early discounts, develop stricter external compliance, among other savings, goes a long way towards getting C-suite buy-in.

The blog provides a link to Corcentric's ROI Calculator which contains many different variables to measure the ROI a company will realize when implementing AP workflow automation and e-invoicing.

The Corcentric blog is a knowledge center for accounts payable professionals to explore automation best practices along with the latest trends and news in financial process automation.

    By analyzing the current value stream, several non-value adding steps were discovered. We recommend that you eliminate the PFR check in Accounts Payable. This step only catches 1,250 of the 65,000 errors (1.92%), and it will save you 420 seconds (7 minutes) in processing time. When checked twice, the first group relies on the second group to catch any errors they may have missed, which creates an inefficient system. Additionally, by eliminating this step, one of the employees will be able to spend 25% of his or her time in the batch process and the final inspection step. This will decrease utilization from 106.25% to 85%. Another employee from the PFR check, in the Accounts Payable Department, can be used to elevate the bottleneck. In this case, the bottleneck is the “Enter Into Pay Now Process” step. By moving one person here for 25% of his or her time, the utilization decreases from 106.22% to 84.97%. Likewise, we recommend that you eliminate the check for the PO step in the mailroom, because Bill has stated that, “Fortunately, we don’t really get any invoices without valid PO numbers on them.” This will decrease total processing time by two minutes and lead to a leaner system.…

    Back in 1993, the company’s Director, Ted Anderson, launched the idea of developing a Document Control System, named Payables Audit System. It was a huge achievement to make this project. The company created six different departments, which are in charge of different project parts. The most important person in this project was the MBA graduate from MIS with wide experience and huge knowledge, Linda Watkins. She is the Project Director for the PAS. At the beginning of the project, Linda Watkins brought specialists to the project from outside of the company. The idea of implementing the PAS system in the company reduced the cost of operations. For instance, an incoming order in the company goes through 18 clerks to be proceeded. When the new system will be implemented, the same order can be proceeded by 1 or 2 people. It will reduce time, employment, and will allow the company to have a better storage system.…

    Paul Boyer and Stephen Nissenbaum's Salem Possessed explores the pre-existing social and economic divisions within the Salem Village community, as an entry point to understand the accusations of witchcraft in 1692. According to Boyer and Nissenbaum, the village split into two factions: one interested in gaining more autonomy for Salem Village and led by the Putnam family, and the other, interested in the mercantile and political life of Salem Town and led by the Porter family. Boyer and Nissenbaum's deft and imaginative look at local records reveals the contours of communal life in colonial New England and provides a model through which to understand the witchcraft accusations as part of a larger pattern of communal strife. Such a tight focus on communal and social causes for the events of 1692, however, loses sight of the religious, gendered, and individual forces that played equally pivotal roles in the outbreak.…
