Reports can also be easily generated and exported in simple formats like Excel and PDF. The interfaces provided by TIS include drill-down optionality to examine data across virtually any metric and also enable users to develop custom reporting workflows.

Benefits for Accounting Teams
Accounting teams that leverage an ERP or similar software to manage their company’s financial reporting workflows benefit from TIS’ seamless platform integration and bank connectivity capabilities. Because TIS manages connectivity to all an enterprise’s banks and can integrate with any ERP or back-office system, accounting teams can receive bank statements, cash reports, and payment statuses in real-time from all entities and accounts globally. This eliminates the headache of having to manage bank connections directly within the ERP and also enables a fast and effective reporting process as statements flow automatically into accounting’s associated software platforms.
The result is that accounting teams always have fast and easy access to all the financial information they need to perform their core responsibilities, provided directly within the platform of their choice.

Benefits for AP & AR Departments
AP teams can achieve global visibility to supplier and vendor payment statuses by using TIS. This includes having a centralized view of all bank confirmations, rejections, and fraud or compliance alerts, which is a critical benefit when dealing with hundreds or thousands of vendors. AP can also integrate their ERP module or standalone solution with TIS in order to have supplier payments pass through TIS for automated transmission to and from the bank.
By streamlining the process of paying vendors and achieving greater visibility to the status of outstanding transactions, AP teams can better manage vendor relationships and maintain greater control over outstanding payment requests. TIS also provides more visibility to liquidity and working capital, which aids in the facilitation of supply chain finance programs. Groups that participate in TIS’ payment modality service can also earn a rebate on in-network supplier payments, which can provide significant annual savings.

At the same time, HR staff can harmonize payment processing for payroll in an automated and timely way, reducing the risk of errors and simplifying payroll management. Enhanced visibility over HR payments and payroll costs globally as well as by entity, region, or staff member are also provided in a simplified manner.
