DESCRIPTION

One wasteful place where money flows out the door in small businesses is in late fees. Invoices get paid late when they are out of sight. Having an accounts payable process in place that includes visual cues can reduce, even eliminate paying fees, fines and penalties associated with missed or past due invoices.
