Course Description

As long as invoices remain a staple of the B2B billing and payment process, smart companies will do everything they can to reduce the number of headaches associated with them. What is interesting as we go through the list is that there are ways to greatly reduce or eliminate some of them. Companies just have to make the decision to do so and then stick to the regimen. Those routines are spelled out in this paper.

In this course, industry expert Mary Schaeffer take a look some of the more common problems experienced by companies related to the invoice process and offers solutions on how best-practice companies can minimize these problems and, in some cases, eliminate them.
