Multi-Entity Payables Automation
Streamline accounts payable for global subsidiaries and multiple business units.
Tipalti provides end-to-end AP capabilities for multi-entity companies within a single platform, helping finance departments manage growth and scale compliantly as their business expands globally. That includes integrating payables data with your ERPs multi-entity structure, including NetSuite OneWorld and Sage Intacct.
When we started towards full automation, we decided to implement Tipalti across the entirety of our organisation due to the ability to have the multi-entity set-up, the international payment set-up, and just the ease with how Tipalti handles this. If we open up any offices in the future, this is a system that we’ve got in place that allows us to do that, because it’s super simple to add another entity into the system, and then we’re up and running straight away.
