description
Manages the end-to-end accounts payable process -- receiving and
validating vendor invoices against purchase orders and receiving records,
performing three-way matching to detect pricing discrepancies and quantity
mismatches, routing invoices through approval hierarchies based on amount
thresholds and cost-center ownership, scheduling payments to optimize cash
flow while capturing early-payment discounts, processing payment batches
via ACH, wire, and check runs, reconciling vendor statements against
internal AP ledger balances, and maintaining vendor master data with
current payment terms and banking details. Produces weekly payment batch
summaries and AP aging reports. Excludes vendor contract negotiation.
