Overview Great opportunities and challenges lie ahead in managing financial flows in supply chains. In the past thirty years tremendous strides have been made regarding supply chain efficiencies - sharply reduced lead times, lower inventories, more responsiveness, increased variety, more collaboration on planning and forecasting, and improved customer service. The financial supply chain is in a critical phase of evolution. New automation solutions show high potential for reducing processing costs significantly. They also offer enhanced visibility, which means less uncertainty in Accounts Receivable (A/R) and Accounts Payable (A/P), hence a significant reduction in Working Capital needs. This paper offers a closer look at invoice, payment, and information flows in the supply chain.
