Even small errors can make a big impact on your team’s productivity each day. Technology features that reduce errors can help you employees do their work faster and more accurately, which translates into less wasted time and higher efficiency. To support these goals, this month’s update is designed to identify and correct errors early in the invoice submission process, reducing the incidence of inaccuracies that prevent posting.

How does this update deliver value for your business?
Posting issues waste time and effort both for submitters and approvers.

With this new feature, you will increase efficiency, save time, and prevent errors that waste time and effort. That’s a critical enhancement as you aim to streamline workflows and give your team the tools they need to be as productive as possible every day.
