How to implement a S2P Solution? #9
Depending on your maturity (see article # 1), our advice is to divide the implementation into four phases.
- AP automation,
- P2, S2C and SRM and Analytics.
ROI is more important with AP automation (E-invoicing) and P2P as those modules will automate low value and time-consuming activities such as invoices reconciliation, manual data entry, purchase requisition, and purchase order management.
