How Predictive Insights Can Streamline Your Accounts Receivable Process

Image
  Data Analytics for Predictive Insights is assuming far greater importance when it comes to efficiently managing the  Accounts Receivables Process . From forecasting customer payment patterns, to spotting possible credit concerns to maximizing cash flow, to improving an organization’s overall financial process, to lowering bad debt, to getting the ability to make well-informed strategic decisions, the role of Data Analytics cannot be undermined. Businesses and organizations that still rely of siloed legacy technologies and systems have data locked up in themselves and this truly obstructs efficiency by creating an unduly complex, non-integrated and inefficient AR landscape. Integration capabilities can help create a single source of truth that can, not only enhance decision-making, but also give AR Teams and other teams a more seamless & cohesive experience that helps boost productivity and of course motivation. MAJOR BENEFITS OF INTEGRATING DATA ANALYTICS INTO THE PROCESS OF ACCO

Building an Automated Workflow with AR

When it comes to   Accounts Receivable Management , delayed collections, higher DSOs, bad debts, inaccurate or uninformed manual forecasting methods, spreadsheet errors, and lack of 360o visibility are an unfortunate reality that many companies are forced to live with. The AR Teams in these companies have to meander through tons of Excel sheets that make the already complex AR function more tedious, mundane and prone to human errors. Moreover, they are stuck and are forced to spend a more than significant amount of their time doing repetitive manual processes that are error prone. The result – the AR Teams keep doing this each and every day and are not able to devote much tome to focus on value-driven data analysis. AR Automation Software Solutions , such as Inebura from TanServ, can change all that and bring about a transformative change to this already complex process. By implementing such solutions, businesses can shorten the invoice-to-cash cycles, reduce costs, improve process vis

Blockchain Sips on the Future with AR Automation

Huh!... Blockchain and AR Automation? What’s the connection? This would be the question on the minds of most of us because when hear the term ‘blockchain’, we almost immediately think of cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, Ethereum…). Well, there’s more to blockchain than just cryptocurrency. In fact, blockchain offers tremendous opportunities for multiple applications, and one such potential application is in the  management of Accounts Receivable s, as part of the e-invoicing process. For any business, the current invoicing process involves delivery of invoices (either online or offline), followed by a reconciliation process against POs & purchasing system data, and finally payment. This, already long process, is slowed down by the need for approval and review at every stage. While automation of e-invoicing helps deliver invoices faster, and businesses are looking at automating payment processing as well, there are still several ways to increase accuracy and speed. And one key way is Blockc

The Power of Integrating ERP with AR Automation Solutions

Can ERPs be used for Accounts Receivable Management? While the answer is, “Yes, you can.”, the correct answer, in fact, is “No!” The reason is that while ERPs will provide AR data to your individual teams, but they will not be able to provide data at the level of complexity as AR Automation Solutions can. AR Automation Solutions provide details data and analytics on every aspect of the collection process so that your teams can actually draw useful insights that can help make strategic financial decisions. So, when it comes to ERP and  Accounts Receivable Management , the best thing to do is to integrate your existing ERP with an AR Automation Software. We, in fact, did a small survey with CFOs, that truly threw up some very surprising results. More than half the CFOs we surveyed believed and feared that the integration of their existing ERP and an AR Automation Software will actually not be feasible. The most important reason in their minds was that the cost of integration will be too

The highly manual processes bring about frequent errors that lead to payment disputes, which in turn lead to either late payment or bad debt.  If you can identify with the above scenario then Accounts Receivable Automaton Software is the solution that you definitely need. The software will streamline the entire invoice-to-cash-cycle so that you improve your collection potentia
