As a result, over $1 trillion in working capital is locked up\u2014about 7% of overall revenue. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, days-to-pay (the time it takes to convert receivables into cash) has risen by an average of 10%.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, finance teams are struggling to keep up more than ever before. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speeding up AR, however, is a challenging task. Not only is AR incredibly complex on its own, but it\u2019s also intertwined with a lot of other processes.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of these is order-to-cash (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/the-connector\/order-to-cash-process\/\">O2C<\/a>), which is a catch-all term for the process of fulfilling, invoicing, and delivering goods or services. Though order-to-cash looks slightly different at every organization, its potential to affect other operations is the same. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many departments and teams\u2014from supply chain management to inventory and labor\u2014need up-to-the-minute O2C information in order to function day-to-day. In fact, an IBM study demonstrated that companies who employ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/the-connector\/order-to-cash-best-practices\/\">O2C best practices<\/a> are 81% more effective at order management than those who don\u2019t. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On a macro level, optimizing O2C is especially crucial because it impacts the organization\u2019s cash flow. Delayed invoicing or slow accounts receivable processes can make it harder for other teams like <a href=\"https:\/\/blog2workato.wpengine.com\/accounts-payable-automation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">accounts payable<\/a>, payroll, and all other functions that rely on liquidity. O2C can define an organization\u2019s success\u2014or destroy it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Finance needs an advocate<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Given its profound organizational impact, why haven\u2019t businesses already optimized their order-to-cash processes? Generally, there are a few challenges, like:<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Keeping up with a high volume of order entries and updates in real-time<\/li><li>Working with splintered apps, including legacy, on-prem, and custom software<\/li><li>Highly manual processes leading to fulfillment errors or bad data<\/li><li>Lack of transparency into other systems resulting in backorders and delays<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But there\u2019s also a bigger problem: in 2019, finance teams are still largely underserved and unrecognized, especially at digitally-focused companies. They\u2019re seen as back-office drones\u2014not innovators.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThese organizations are very top line driven, so they tend to disregard what the finance team does,\u201d says Jenny Sohn, a CFO with 20+ years of experience at companies like Evernote, Goldman Sachs, and now Workato. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In reality, however, the finance team is one of the most powerful because they sit on a wealth of data needed to make strategic decisions about growth. They\u2019re also responsible for everyday tasks like invoice creation that may seem rote\u2014but are actually crucial to the organization\u2019s health.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cJust like any other housekeeping procedures, if things are going well, nobody notices. But take that team out of the equation, and everything comes to a screeching halt. Things don\u2019t get done,\u201d says Sohn.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite seeing finance as a primarily back-office function, it\u2019s not uncommon for digitally-focused companies to also expect them to stay ahead of the curve technologically. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIronically, these tech-forward organizations are also the early adopters of new technology. So ordinarily, they may have the attitude of \u2018Payroll? Who cares about payroll?\u2019 But once a tool like Gusto or Bill.com comes out, everyone signs up,\u201d she continues. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This can exacerbate the problems of fragmented tech within the finance department\u2014and it\u2019s why business systems professionals can be invaluable when it comes to making O2C more efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/blog2workato.wpengine.com\/procurement-automation\/\">5 reasons to automate your procurement process<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Facilitating processes that span multiple teams<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In order to operationalize an efficient O2C process, business systems leaders must consider how a wide range of apps fit together. These include hub apps (ERPs like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/integrations\/netsuite?utm_source=blog\">NetSuite<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/integrations\/sap?utm_source=blog\">SAP<\/a>), CPQ tools (such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/integrations\/coupa?utm_source=blog\">Coupa<\/a>), eCommerce platforms (like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/integrations\/magento?utm_source=blog\">Magento<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/integrations\/shopify?utm_source=blog\">Shopify<\/a>), and CRMs (such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/integrations\/salesforce?utm_source=blog\">Salesforce<\/a>). <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To sell a product, for example, available-to-promise information has to be synced between the company\u2019s inventory management tool and its eCommerce platform. Invoices need to be associated with the correct accounts in the CRM, and all sales need to be logged correctly in the company\u2019s financial hub.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But systems professionals have to think about more than just apps; they also have to consider how several different teams of people work together to sell products, bill customers, and book revenue. These teams include: <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Pricing team.<\/strong> This team needs in-depth knowledge about how they\u2019ll price a product. They must consider a product with a cradle to grave approach: How are new products introduced? How will discounting work with new sales, renewals, partners? When they sunset a product, what happens to orders that are up for renewal?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Sales team.<\/strong> What are their selling strategies? Is there an approval process for discounts and price adjustments? How does the sales team present the quote to the customer\u2014manually or through a dedicated CPQ tool? When are commissions paid? &nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Finance team.<\/strong> What are the rules around the booking and recognition of sales? Is it net 30\/60\/90? Do they bill monthly, yearly, upfront? How does the finance team recognize revenue over a given period of time? <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In short, O2C isn\u2019t just about generating invoices and adding them to the right subledger. It touches many other business-critical processes that span a variety of teams.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because they sit between IT and lines-of-business teams like these, systems professionals are strategically placed to help reimagine O2C from the ground up. They have a broad overview of which apps and tools are already in place <em>and<\/em> an understanding of what these teams need from those tools\u2014so they\u2019re perfectly situated to dream up creative solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Intelligent automation for O2C: a way forward<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Operationalizing O2C at scale requires an unrealistic amount of manual work, so most companies already have some level of integration in place. But because the processes required for O2C go beyond simply moving data, these challenges can\u2019t be solved through integration alone. To be truly efficient, O2C requires end-to-end process automation. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This automation can take many forms, but some common examples include:<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Automatically creating and tracking invoices for every Closed Won opportunity<\/li><li>Instantaneously unlocking paid features for digital products<\/li><li>Managing return authorizations and refunds<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/resources.workato.com\/financial-automations\/?utm_source=blog\"><em>See real-life examples of these processes from top companies in our ebook &gt;<\/em><\/a><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As experts in both the companies\u2019 technology and processes, business systems leaders can play a key role in deploying financial automations at scale (something that the majority of companies <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capgemini.com\/research\/reshaping-the-future-unlocking-automations-untapped-value\/\">still struggle with<\/a>, according to Capgemini.) They\u2019re well-suited to drive activities like:<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Identify elements of the O2C process that can feasibly be automated<\/li><li>Evaluate automation platforms and select one that will be agile, easy to maintain, and adapt as the company grows and changes<\/li><li>Get buy-in for automation projects from key stakeholders across the organization<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ultimately, automation is the way forward for financial teams as their workload continues to grow. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAs a finance team, if you don&#8217;t command your day, your day will swallow you,\u201d Sohn notes. \u201cAutomation is valuable because by taking care of repetitive, menial tasks, it can help a lot with finance\u2019s talent problem. There&#8217;s often a high rate of turnover. People leave. They get jaded and they shy away from the traditional accounting roles because thinking that it&#8217;s a boring number crunching job. Automation changes that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>See how intelligent automation powers finance teams at high-growth companies: <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/resources.workato.com\/financial-automations\/?utm_source=blog\"><em>Download our free ebook &gt;<\/em><\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to a recent Genpact study, accounts receivable (AR) performance has been deteriorating for two-thirds of America\u2019s largest companies.
