WEBINAR SYNOPSIS | TIMING | SESSIONS | |
Digital transformation has come for the CFO. Deloitte’s Finance 2025 Perspective outlines a future of finance that is embedded with automation, providing real time insights, via a self-service model. Technology will play an increasingly important role, with the CFO taking on a more strategic outlook. As finance professionals look to drive digital transformation within their departments and their organisations, CFOs need to ensure that they maintain the balance between business value creation, risk management, and fraud mitigation. So where can CFOs start? Accounts payable (AP) automation. Despite the technological advances happening throughout the organisation, accounts payable has remained a manual process in many businesses and still sees the likes of mail delivered invoices and physical cheques. As the kick off point for the CFO’s digital transformation journey, the accounts payable process provides a low-hanging fruit for CFOs to secure early wins and big impacts to help build trust for the future. Join Digital CFO Asia and xSuite in this webinar session where we will discuss varous aspects of AP automation. WHAT YOU CAN LEARN:
