Paper driven, manual accounts payable (AP) departments still process the majority of business invoices, although it has proven to be less efficient than an AP automation solution. In the traditional system, AP invoices are routed manually via paper or through a scanned electronic invoice attached to an email.
Once the route is complete, an employee must manually type the information from the invoice into the automated system. This system adds many costs, wastes time and is prone to human error.
Many of the costs of using a manual AP process are hidden. As such, they are often underestimated. In general, if multiple people must handle a single invoice before it is approved or placed into an AP invoice solution, the costs of data entry, lost time and human error may represent over 50% of the cost of processing.
Many companies forego AP automation because of the upfront costs to implement the new system. However, the money a company saves pays for these costs very quickly. Research has shown that manual invoice processing can cost as much as $20 per invoice, while automating the process drops that cost to $4. The payback for implementing an automated invoice system ranges from six to 18 months. Some of the benefits you can expect from automation include –

In the modern world, accounting departments are usually overwhelmed with numerous tasks that they have to complete on time. These experts are generally asked to do more with less, and they are being pushed more than ever.
Recruiting more employees to reduce the workload is not an option for many organizations and so, finding smart ways to lighten up the workload through expense report automation solution is crucial than ever.
Automating the expense management process can make everything simple and more efficient for both the management and the employee.

Effective planning, budgeting, and management of travel, entertainment, and other expenses is crucial for companies- both small and large.

The most critical part of any expense report automation solution is the integration into your company’s accounting system.
