Current Trends in Paperless Accounts Payable
The movement to paperless payables is being driven by three factors:
• Need for more efficiency, especially in tough economic cycles
• The need for better risk management & business continuity
• Advances in electronic technology
![Page 12: Payment Solutions for QAD Users](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081507/5681673d550346895ddbef08/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
AP Challenges
• Over reliance on people & paper-based processes
• Manual processes = discrepancies & exceptions
• Low productivity & higher invoice processing costs
• Electronic Invoicing = accuracy & less discrepancies
• Electronic ACH payment adoption rates

Why is ePayment Adoption So Low?
• Difficult and time consuming to launch
• Cumbersome enrollment process & labor intensive
• Difficult managing vendor information
• Challenges managing disparate systems

A Compelling ROI for Paying Electronically
• A clear, justifiable ROI exists when implementing a unified ePayment solution
• More Secure than Paper Checks
• Immediate Electronic Remittance Delivery

Why Pay Electronically?Let’s Do the Math
Cost to process Check $2.25
Cost to process ACH $0.15
The math: 1500 checks/mo. at $2.25 each = $3,375
Annual cost = $40,500
If 50% move to ACH at $0.15 each:
Savings of $2.25 - $0.15 = $2.10 each
750 ACH payments x $2.10 =
$1,575 per month
An Annual Savings
of $18,900!
