This is a sneak peek at the first-ever Global Virtual AP Summit for those who work in, manage or have responsibility for the accounts payable function. This overview is conducted by Jamie Radford, CEO AP Association, a global organization headquartered in the UK and Mary Schaeffer, Founder AP Now, a US-based organization focused on best practice issues impacting the accounts payable and payment functions. This is the session for all #accounting and #accountspayable professionals. #GlobalAP

The co-hosts have worked together for several years and decided to put this event together after discovering that accounts payable issues are largely the same regardless of country. Everyone continually deals with fraud, invoice processing headaches, concerns about career advancement, technology, analytics, etc. On both sides of the pond, accounts payable and payment professionals face real concerns about how to implement a digital payment program, if and when their organizations decide to take that approach. And many more than you might imagine are.

Traditional accounts payable issues, including best accounts payable practices, strong internal controls, metrics and benchmarking, fraud protection, career advancement, invoice handling, avoiding duplicate payments and data analytics and more, will be addressed during this two-day online event, starting at 11:30 am, regardless of location. Ahh, the beauties of technology.

At a very reasonable $35 per person, companies on both sides of the pond are registering their entire accounts payable staffs.
