Source text - English Who would have imagined that creating a seamless purchase-to-pay process would be more challenging than putting men on the moon? While great strides have been made in supply chain management processes, accounts payable and supplier payments are still mired in labor and paper-intensive processes.
Not anymore. The good news is that several new payment management tools are starting to change the status quo. Today, many innovative financial managers now recognize AP automation as an area offering significant potential for not only generating bottom-line improvements, like cost containment and productivity enhancement, but also delivering numerous strategic benefits around spend and discount management.
Take the Discount, Dummy
Here's a classic issue. You receive an invoice from a supplier, but because of a quantity or price exception against the purchase order, your accounts payables department is unable to process the invoice fast enough to capture the early payment discount your procurement department negotiated with that supplier.
"For most organizations, lost discounts can add up to hundreds of thousands of dollars in profit leakage each year," claims Sush Koka, research director at PayStream Advisors, a Charlotte, N.C.-based research firm. "We are very excited to see many companies starting to move towards paperless environments, which allow them to review and approve invoices faster."
Drive to Capture Early Payment Discounts
One of the major drivers for AP automation has been senior management's emphasis on improving visibility to payment liabilities. This has come to bear along with a strong push toward increasing discount capture from suppliers for prompt payments, such as 2 percent 10 net 30 terms.
However, the reality is far from this. According to PayStream Advisors' Financial Automation Survey, at least half of the organizations participating in the survey are unable to capture anywhere between 50 to 70 percent of discounts offered because their AP departments are unable to approve and pay the invoices within the 10 day discount window.
Translation - Indonesian Siapa yang pernah membayangkan, proses suatu purchase-to-pay yang berjalan tanpa gangguan akan lebih menantang dibanding proses manusia berjalan di bulan? Meski begitu banyak langkah yang sudah dihasilkan dalam proses manajemen jaringan suplai, account payable dan pembayaran suplier masih terperosok di dalam proses tenaga kerja dan penggunaan kertas secara intensif.
Tidak perlu seperti itu lagi. Berita baiknya, sejumlah sistem manajemen pembayaran baru mulai merubah keadaan status quo ini. Hari ini, para manajer finansial yang inovatif mengakui otomatisasi AP sebagai suatu area penawaran yang potensial tak hanya untuk menghasilkan perbaikan yang berhubungan dengan biaya, seperti cost containment dan peningkatan produktivitas, namun juga pemberian berbagai manfaat strategis di sekitar lingkup manajemen pembelanjaan dan diskon.
Ambillah Diskon Ini, Pandir
Berikut ini isu klasik. Anda mendapatkan invoice dari seorang suplier, namun karena kuantitas atau perkecualian harga terhadap order pembelian, departemen pembayaran account Anda tidak dapat memproses invoice tersebut dalam waktu singkat, untuk mendapatkan diskon pembayaran awal yang telah dinegosiasikan departemen pengadaan Anda dengan supplier tersebut.
"Bagi sebagian besar organisasi, hilangnya kesempatan diskon dapat berkembang sampai ratusan ribu dolar dalam kebocoran profit tiap tahunnya," tegas Sush Koka, direktur peneliti di PayStream Advisors, Charlotte, N.C - suatu perusahaan berbasis penelitian. "Kami sangat bersemangat melihat berbagai perusahaan mulai bergerak menuju lingkungan yang tak lagi tergantung pada kertas, memungkinkan perusahaan-perusahaan tersebut mengulas dan menerima invoices dalam cara yang lebih cepat."
Dorongan untuk Mendapatkan Diskon Pembayaran Awal
Salah satu penggerak utama bagi sistem otomatisasi AP ialah tekanan manajemen senior untuk meningkatkan visibilitas terhadap liabilitas pembayaran. Ini harus ditanggung bersamaan dengan semakin meningkatnya tekanan untuk dapat meraup diskon dari suplier, untuk pembayaran secara cepat dan tepat waktu, misalnya 2 persen 10 net 30 term.
Namun, realitanya masih jauh dari ini. Menurut PayStream Advisors' Financial Automation Survey, setidaknya setengah dari berbagai organisasi yang turut berpartisipasi dalam survey tidak mampu meraup antara 50 sampai 70 persen diskon yang ditawarkan, karena departemen AP pada organisasi-organisasi tersebut tidak mampu menyetujui dan membayar invoice dalam waktu 10 hari masa pembukaan diskon.
