APFlow™ Accounts Payable Workflow Module
The APFlow™ Accounts Payable Workflow Module replaces the manual invoice approval and coding systems—found in most construction companies—with a paperless process that can reduce the cost of accounts payable invoice processing, as well as improve invoice approval turnaround time by over fifty percent.
A custom-built Bridge™ links the APFlow™ module to your accounting software’s data files to ensure high-speed validation and single-entry, single-touch integration.
Our customers agree that implementing APFlow™ has made such an impact on their accounts payable process that within a few months, the system returned most of its investment. The increases in efficiency and profitability comes from:
