New report summarizes how the accounts payable function processes B2B or commercial payments, including a matrix to help rank and prioritize solutions

Banks wanting to sell payment solutions to businesses may fail to satisfy the operational requirements of accounts payable (AP), resulting in missed targets for implementations, usage, and adoption. However, by understanding the needs and operating constraints of AP, banks can avoid roadblocks and increase the likelihood of adoption and unrealized return on investment (ROI).

In a new Impact Report, Accounts Payable Solution Adoption: Determining Success or Failure, research and advisory firm Aite-Novarica Group summarizes how the AP function processes B2B or commercial payments, identifies what will trigger this department’s objections to new solutions and services, and includes a matrix of key considerations for assessing and ranking commercial payments offerings.

“AP’s conduct and performance directly impact a company’s working capital,” said Paul Kizirian, Strategic Advisor at Aite-Novarica Group and author of the new report. “Solutions that enhance the function’s ability to time payments according to terms and logic will help improve the company’s financial strength. Solutions that pledge to pay vendors as soon as possible will not be perceived well.”
