Many SME's have their AP function covered by a shared/non-dedicated resource from elsewhere in the organisation, or possibly outsourced (eg to a bookkeeper).
leanAP frees up that resource to complete other competing demands on their time.
As businesses grow, a dedicated AP team member is often required to deal with the full purchase to payables cycle.
leanAP adds capacity to this resource to focus on higher value adding elements of the AP process (eg vendor optimisation, payment term negotiation etc).
At scale, more than one AP team member is often required.
leanAP adds capacity to the team overall, providing the opportunity for workflow review and optimisation, reduced cost of volume processing, and increased focus on reporting.
The AP team set (and forget) the routing. A single click on each email is all it takes to set leanAP in action. No more viewing/detaching documents, finding the approver and sending to them requesting review.
For easier document search and filtering on your system. Added to the filename of the incoming invoice is your vendor code and date of receipt, to aid searching and filtering across your vendor and invoice fleet.
Approvers have a complete view of invoices for their approval as soon as they're received. Gone are the days of mining your inbox to find those invoices.
Invoices filed once, referenced by URL, and moved between folders based on their approval status. Automatically.
A detailed log of transaction and approval detail is maintained for interaction with your systems. Including the local taxes that you set, and whatever currency is required.
At last, your AP team can see everything, including where each invoice is in the workflow. No more chasing lost invoices, wondering why an invoice was rejected, or taking tricky vendor calls in the dark.
If you can drive a spreadsheet, you're all over this. Use our Support & FAQ to help you along the way. We're here if you need us, but doubt
you will.
Everything remains within your existing Google environment, not sent off elsewhere.
As many approvers, entities, currencies and taxes as you need. Our simple pricing model only concerns itself with the number of invoices processed through leanAP.
Extensive feature set built by those with hands on knowledge of practice, process and automation.
Of course. With all the benefits that brings.
