Unlocking the Future of Cash Flow: Advancements in Order-to-Cash Automation and AI

We’ve been trying to automate order-to-cash for some 20 years now, but data from SSON Research & Analytics shows that 50% of SSOs still perceive their O2C Automation level as low. With the ‘permanent crisis’ the world is in today, cash is understandably of paramount importance to business. Which makes it surprising that, until now, so much of the focus has been on procure to pay. However, in the last few years the attention on OTC has increased, the tools have also improved, and AI has taken what’s possible, to the next level.

In this year’s event, we’ll be exploring how organizations can look to confidently forecast and predict future cash-flow. How they can deploy automation and even AI tools to generate revenue and create elevated customer experience. We’ll also be examining the benefits of expanding order-to-cash, to opportunity-to-cash and incorporating sales into the GBS, for additional impact.

Key Topics:

    • AI & Generative AI in O2C: Exploring the potential to maximize cash-flow
    • Automating Order Processing, contract management, billing, Cash Application and more!
    • From historical, to predictive and prescriptive data!
    • Disputes, Billing, Sales, Quotes: Which sub-processes can you bring into GBS?
    • Customer Experience: Balancing personalized service with economies of scale
    • Impact metrics to track: DSO, DPO, ADD
