In an uncertain economic environment, finance leaders are at a crossroads. As they face challenges like rising costs and market changes, they’re turning to automation to drive efficiency and cost savings across their organizations.
For the 9th Annual State of AP Report, we surveyed over 1,100 finance professionals, including businesses (buyers) and vendors, to better understand the current challenges accounts payables teams face, opportunities for improvement, and the future of AP.
Key findings include:
