Your business's accounts payable department maintains a record of all the money you owe to suppliers and other creditors. A well-functioning accounts payable department will help you ensure that you pay any money you owe to other individuals or businesses as promptly as possible and in line with any payment arrangements you might have with individual creditors.

It’s a standard accounts receivable process that every company will need to contend with at some point. Unfortunately, this is one area where many companies struggle.
