How-to Guide: Achieving True Straight Through Processing

At the forefront of modern A/R optimization lies the concept of straight through processing (STP)—a streamlined approach that aims to automate and accelerate the entire A/R lifecycle from payment initiation and acceptance, to deposit/settlement, and ultimately cash application—all with minimal (or no) manual intervention or touch points. 

Legacy A/R operations and processes typically require significant involvement of internal personnel for workflow checkpoints, data entry and reconciliation. With true straight through processing, the A/R lifecycle is automated across payment acceptance, processing and posting. STP automates the entire workflow, offering real-time oversight of incoming payment information and empowering the automation of data transmission into your back-office cash application operations.

In this “How-to Guide,” we’ll lay out the key points that will lead your business to achieving true straight through processing within your receivable operations.
