 Are you facing these finance challenges?

  • Labour intensive operations
  • Tedious manual 3-way matching
  • Fragmented and overwhelming number of ERP systems in the group
  • Significant manual data entry work
  • Manual approval process
  • Inability to meet payment turnaround time
  • High risk of human error
  • Poor data consolidation leads to delayed reporting
  • Inadequate follow-ups on collection
  • Poor cashflow visibility
  • Lack of real time visibility of sales performance with segmentation
  • Decentralised invoice submission by vendors


Siloed systems make it difficult to generate timely, accurate financial reports, delaying strategic decision-making. These challenges result in a wider impact on business performance including damaging vendor trust and increasing financial strain.

It's clear that traditional, manual processes are no longer practical. Businesses need a smarter, more efficient way to manage Accounts Payable (AP) and Accounts Receivable (AR).

AP and AR automation involves leveraging technology to streamline and digitise the entire lifecycle of financial transactions related to invoicing, payments, and collections. 

Accounts Payable (AP) automation reduces manual data entry, speeds up invoice approvals, and ensures timely payments to suppliers. This helps to minimise late fees and strengthening vendor relationships. 

Accounts Receivable (AR) automation streamlines invoice generation, payment reminders, and reconciliation, helping businesses get paid faster and reduce days sales outstanding (DSO). 

By automating these processes, companies can improve accuracy, enhance cash flow visibility, and free up valuable time for strategic financial planning.
