ReadSoft has announced the release of PROCESS DIRECTOR 7.2 Accounts Payable (AP) solution for the SAP-market adding support for several new business processes.

ReadSoft PROCESS DIRECTOR works inside SAP to provides an end to end workflow for automated invoice approval.

With 7.2, ReadSoft says routine financial postings are automated, including adjustments, accruals and reversals, and recurring entries. Master data updates to both customer and vendor data are supported, a key for successful sales order processing.
