We hear about more and more organizations planning to automate or migrate old reports to the new Financial Report Writer. “Better enablement with visibility” is the number one need identified by business people when it comes to how they get and use information. Visibility means getting the right information into the hands of the right people at the right time. The right information is relevant and accurate. The right people are those who know what to do next. The right time is whenever they need it. That’s the process of enablement.

Workflow automation helps you streamline key tasks and boost operational efficiencies while freeing your people to pursue their core competencies. Intuitive customization and seamless integration with your existing IT infrastructure help reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) and can extend the value of your IT investments. Microsoft Dynamics works the way you do.

Dynamics GP supports your core business needs with comprehensive built-in capabilities that are easy to report on, even with unlimited companies. You can be confident that BI 360 or Management Reporter is used for the creation, distribution and analysis of financial statements. Microsoft Dynamics pricing is not charged by the company, pricing is calculated by your user count.

Microsoft Dynamics makes it easy by collecting the data from every source, external and on-premises, and giving you tools to quickly analyze and explore your insights. Microsoft offers you solutions to manage complexity and drive business agility by connecting departments easily. By choosing a Microsoft Dynamics, you have options to deploy your resources using Office 365 via cloud technology — or can enable Dynamics 365 in Azure or enable a private Cloud — to give you the scalability to accelerate business transformation and spending transparency needed to run an automated, modern, responsive business.

More and more organizations are looking for an easier way to do vendor invoice approval. The person able to authorize payment and signify his or her approval of a supplier invoice still requires an additional check signer. If the check exceeds a certain amount, a second check signer is required. This control supposedly gives multiple senior-level people the chance to stop a payment. In reality, it is more likely to only introduce another step into the payment process without really strengthening the control environment.

The term “accounts payable automation” or “AP automation” is used to describe the ongoing effort of many companies to streamline the business process of their accounts payable departments. The accounts payable department’s main responsibility is to process and review transactions between the company and its suppliers. In other words, it is the accounts payable department’s job to make sure all outstanding invoices from suppliers are approved, processed, and paid. Processing an invoice includes recording important data from the invoice and inputting it into the company’s financial, or accounting, system. After these tasks are accomplished, the invoice must go through the company’s business process to be paid.

This process is straightforward but can become very cumbersome, especially if the company has a very large number of invoices. This problem is compounded when invoices that require processing are on paper. This can lead to lost invoices, human error during data entry, and invoice duplication. These and other problems lead to a high cost-per-invoice metric. The goal of automating the accounts payable department is to streamline this invoicing process, eliminate potential human error, and lower the cost per invoice. Some of the most common AP automation solutions include e-invoicing, scanning and workflow, online tracking, reporting capabilities, electronic invoice user interfaces, supplier networks, payment services, and cost analytics for all invoices.
