We are helping Tourism Victoria with their green plans though AP automation.
Did you know you can go green and save at the same time? Tourism Victoria, one of our new beanbills clients, is using accounts payable automation to go green and reduce their carbon foot print. Click here to check out what other green initiatives they have on the go throughout their operations. Did you know that an automated accounts payable method is 2/3 cheaper than the old manual system of pushed paper around for approvals and manually entering it all into the accounting system. Want to learn more about it read this article. Tourism Victoria have the opportunity to save as much as 188 pounds of paper annually! That works out to 4,225 pounds of greenhouse gases avoided. Way to go Tourism Victoria!

This is a great piece from Mary Schaefers
e-AP newsletter;
Here are a few tactics you can try that are good both for the environment and a more efficient AP function
• 1) Before you hit that print button, ask, "Do I really need a copy?"
• 2) Pay electronically if at all possible.
• 3) Encourage electronic invoicing-it makes AP more efficient.
• 4) Sign up for a service that converts the faxes to e- mail.
• 5) Automate wherever possible.
thanks Mary!!
