IOFM Virtual Town Hall Meeting: Where AP Goes from Here - What AP Leaders Need to Do in the Wake of COVID-19

The effects of COVID-19 on accounts payable operations will be felt long after the curve has flattened, state governments reopen their economies, and employees can return to their offices.

It will be up to accounts payable leaders to develop strategies that address the new challenges, new ways of working, new risks, and the need for new technologies brought about by the pandemic.

If your organization is looking for ways to move forward, IOFM invites you to join us for this virtual town hall meeting for accounts payable and finance leaders. Our experts will share advice, best practices and insights on emerging technologies to help prepare your accounts payable department for the road ahead, no matter how it unfolds. Polling questions will provide you with a glimpse into the challenges that your industry peers are facing, and how they hope to overcome them.

Listen to our experts' advice on how your organization can address COVID-19 challenges such as remote workers, more supplier inquiries, pressure to extend payment terms, early-payment discount strategies, vendor master management, reporting and more!
