In the world of modern business, achieving efficiency and cost-effectiveness is crucial to success. However, a common problem that hinders this goal is defects within critical business processes.

1. Manual processes and handoffs.
2. Poorly designed processes with limited scope.
Understanding the AP process and the advantages of automation is crucial. This understanding goes beyond just the steps in the process; it includes how information is used, managing available funds, optimizing working capital, reducing risks, preventing fraud, and increasing overall business adaptability.

Adding compensating and manual controls (i.e., manual purchase orders) is used to control the spend, but it can act as a ditch on the other side of the road, as manual processes cost time, impair efficiency, and lead to errors.
