Automation is often seen as a way to remove people from processes. But in Accounts Payable, the opposite is true.

Watch the webinar to learn how the right automation brings the human element back to AP — freeing your teams from the grind of manual tasks and helping them feel more purposeful, capable, and valued at work.

In this webinar, you’ll learn key ways AI-powered automation can:
• Reduce stress from repetitive manual tasks
• Give teams more time for meaningful, strategic work
• Improve morale and retention in your AP function

The Human Side of Accounts Payable and How Automation Supports It

Is your Accounts Payable technology keeping up with your growth? 

You’ve automated parts of your AP process—but things still feel clunky. You’re getting invoices approved eventually, but only after emails, nudges, and delays. Sound familiar?

You’re not alone. A PYMNTS study found that while 80% of businesses have adopted some form of AP automation, only 1 in 3 report being fully satisfied with their technologies. The reality? Not all AP solutions are created equal. Many were built for a different time—before remote work, real-time visibility, and complex supplier networks became the norm.

Watch this webinar to help you take stock of your current AP setup—and explore the indicators and strategies that reveal when it’s time to upgrade.

During this session, you’ll learn:
• How to identify pain points that are costing your team time and money
• Indicators that signal your current technology is no longer fit-for-purpose

Watch our webinar to uncover the signs of an outdated AP process and learn how to modernise for better control, visibility and performance.

10 Indicators that It’s Time to Refresh AP for Better Control, Visibility, and Results
