    Description: This podcast is a series of single person, just me (Tony Bourke) talking about the network automation journey. While there's a lot of resources out there to help people use the tools of automation (Ansible, Arista CloudVision, Python, DCNM/ACI, etc.) I think there's not as much talk about some of the fundamental concepts, motivations, and how to address the "fear and loathing" of automation that the networking community can sometimes express regarding automation.

    The Evolution of Accounts Payable | Manual to Automated

    Release Date: 04/08/2024

    Description: Our recent podcast episode explores the transformative journey of Accounts Payable (AP) from manual drudgery to seamless automation. Host Amit talks with Tom Johnson, a seasoned accounting professional, to shed light on the challenges faced in the past and the immense benefits reaped through automation. Here’s a quick glimpse: The Manual Era: Imagine desks overflowing with invoices and meticulous manual data entry. This was the reality of AP not long ago. The Dawn of Automation: Computers brought relief, offering digital records and streamlined processes. However, core functionalities remained manual. The Automation Revolution: The 21st century ushered in a new era with automated invoice scanning, electronic invoicing, and AI integration, making AP processes smarter and faster. Benefits Beyond Efficiency: Automation empowers businesses with real-time financial insights, informed decision-making, and the elimination of late payments through reminders and notifications. Challenges Overcome: Manual AP was plagued by human error, inefficiency, and high costs. Automation tackles these issues head-on, reducing processing times and errors significantly. Cost Savings & Efficiency Gains:  Automation boasts impressive statistics – processing times slashed by 80%, invoice processing costs reduced by 29%, and error rates minimized with 99% accuracy. The Evolving Role of AP Professionals:  With automation, AP professionals are transitioning from data entry to strategic tasks, focusing on analysis and problem-solving. Adaptability, data interpretation, and process optimization are key skill sets in this new landscape. Indicators for Automation:  Processing over 500 invoices monthly, exceeding 5% error rates, and AP staff spending more than 60% of their time on data entry are signs that your organization is ripe for automation. Enhanced Accuracy & Compliance: Automation eliminates human error and ensures adherence to regulations through data validation, invoice cross-referencing, and consistent rule application. Selecting an AP Automation Solution: Scalability, integration capabilities, and user-friendliness are prime considerations. Opt for a system that seamlessly integrates with existing software and offers room for growth. Vendor Relationships & Supplier Management: Automation fosters stronger relationships with vendors by ensuring timely payments. This strategic shift allows for better terms, optimized cash flow, and collaborative growth with suppliers. Challenges During Transition: Resistance to change, integration complexities, and initial investment concerns are potential hurdles. Effective communication, user-friendly solutions, and highlighting of long-term benefits can ease the transition. Data Analytics & Financial Insights: Leverage data analytics to uncover spending trends, identify cost-saving opportunities, negotiate better terms, and mitigate risks. Real-time cash flow visibility empowers informed decision-making and financial optimization. Want to delve deeper? Check out our comprehensive blog post on automating your accounts payable processes.
