Accounts Payable Best Practices No More!
In honor of all AP professionals, a special low-cost program!
Register here ($59.95) and get the CD too ($99.95). Order only the CD ($59.95) here.
When Bob Dylan sang “the times they are a changin,’” he probably wasn’t thinking about accounts payable. The lyrics, however, are apropos of the transformation the AP function has undergone in the last few years. Today’s “best practice” accounts payable department doesn’t use the processes of just a few short years ago.
Our editorial director, Mary Schaeffer, a nationally-recognized accounts payable expert, has just completed an extensive review of practices currently deemed to be best practice and identified those that no longer work. The list is longer than you might imagine. Please join us on November 5, 2008 for a revealing 60-minutes as she:
- Identifies the so-called best practices that, in fact, no longer work;
- Explains why they no longer do the job; and
- Offers alternative practices to meet the needs of today.
Accounts Payable Now & Tomorrow is offering this event for the low price of $59.95 (for either the event or the CD) as a belated celebration of Accounts Payable Appreciation week. After the event the CD will be added to our Accounts Payable CD library at our regular CD price.
How many of the practices that used to be deemed as best practice do you think your accounts payable department is still using today?
