Collaboration Between A/P and Payroll: Staying Connected in a Remote Environment
On-Demand Recording
A/P and Payroll are inextricably linked – but in the era of remote work, it can be hard for these two essential departments to stay on the same page.
That’s why it’s critical to align the functions of your Payroll department with A/P - which, without a centralized office, is easier said than done.
For example, how do you determine which department is responsible for making and reporting different payments to employees?
And how do you ensure that, no matter which department handles the actual payments, reporting is transparent and available for distribution between departments?
When roles and expectations are clearly defined, these teams can better support one another – which means your organization makes fewer mistakes, stays compliant, and avoids costly missteps.
Join this workshop to learn best practices for division of labor between Payroll and A/P - and how to ensure these two essential teams are collaborating and communicating at your organization.
You’ll walk away knowing:
- Best practices for process documentation to keep both departments organized in a distributed environment
- Ways to identify and communicate what each department needs to be successful through the ongoing pandemic
