Stay in Control of Your Finances

Outsource Accounts Payable Functions

Accounts Payable (AP), or short-term debt, are current liabilities owed by a company to its suppliers and vendors for goods and services purchased. It is a critical business function that impacts a company’s cash flow as it is closely involved in coding, approval, payment, and reconciliation of vendor invoices.

Maintaining an in-house team of accountants, especially for SMBs and solopreneurs, can be expensive. Which is why outsourcing this key business function makes sound business sense. Virtual accounts payable specialists ensure that payments are only made on legitimate and accurate bills and invoices. Keeping track of all day-to-day payment cycle activities in a timely and efficient manner helps protect an organization’s cash and assets and gives them improved financial control.

In short, an experienced and well-managed accounts payable team can save an organization massive amounts of time and money.

Outsourcing the accounts payable services to trained experts in reputed companies safeguards a firm’s cash and other assets. It prevents them from paying a fraudulent invoice, paying an inaccurate invoice, paying a vendor invoice twice and being certain that all vendor invoices are accounted for.

Even Better, Outsource Accounts Payable Services to India

For Cost Saving, Standardization and Timely Vendor Payments

When it comes to outsourcing accounts payable services, all eyes usually turn to India, and with good reason. The highest number of ISO-certified companies, an abundance of IT skills and close to 0.1 million (or 1 lakh) skilled and certified accountants joining its accounting talent pool each year, make India the inevitable winner for virtual accounts payable services.

Partnering with the right accounts payable outsourcing companies in India, like Virtual Employee, only amplifies the benefits of letting such qualified professionals handle your accounting complexities with accuracy and speed.

Virtual Employee’s virtual accounts payable professionals transform your tedious manual AP processes into efficient, automated ones by using cloud software like Xero, Quickbooks Online , etc. This also ensures that your financial data is safe and secure within multi-layers of encryption.

That’s not all. You get up-to-the-minute reports regarding payment oversight along with organized invoices to help you steer clear of hidden costs, interest charges, late fees, invoice discrepancies and disputes. Such a precise idea of actual cash flow is crucial in making growth and expansion decisions.
