Mastering B2B Payments with eInvoicing

Accounts payable automation has been around for decades, but few retailers have managed to integrate eInvoicing with ePayments. Payment management workflows therefore become isolated and disparate, wreaking havoc with payment cycles and cash flow. On June 24 at 1 pm ET, PYMNTS.com’s Karen Webster will chat live with NVoicePay’s CEO Karla Fried and Ashish Deshpande, General Manager of Coupa, to show how retailers can break down the barriers to transition to electronic payments.
