Accounts payable (AP) is the bane of every property manager’s existence.

Every month, you have to process an assortment of mailed and emailed invoices from contractors and vendors, enter them into your software system, reconcile if necessary (which it always seems to be), pay them on time (or not)… and that’s just for one community!

4 Ways Enumerate Central Can Reduce Your Accounts Payable Workload

It’s no doubt that HOA accounting is a lot of work.

With automation, lots of customizable options, vendor access, and accounting services, Enumerate Central can help property managers find more time to focus on other parts of their business.

Automated Workflows

Automating as many recurring tasks as possible in account payable is a huge time saver.

Enumerate Central offers comprehensive automation for everything from reporting, billing, dues collection, payment tracking, and more to help meet each HOA’s specific needs.

As an example of automated workflows, let’s look at the AP Batch Processing function. If you manage more than one community, you can print checks for all your communities at once while maintaining the standards of each. It’s easy to set up, and you can work on other tasks while the checks are printing.

Whatever that looks like for your organization, you’ll be able to design your workflows to streamline your accounting procedures. These automated business processes can be created in a matter of minutes and require zero development, i.e., don’t worry about needing to hire a software guru to make changes.Enumerate Central makes streamlining your accounts payables process easy for you and your team to handle.

Customizable Reports

Are you tired of spending hours creating account payable reports with a generic accounting software?

Reduce your accounting workload by creating a custom report, then scheduling it to run and send to the right people each month.

Keys Property Management Enterprise Inc. uses Enumerate Central to “get budgets done for nine communities in one business day”. How long would that task normally take you?

Customizable reports allow for quick and easy reporting, reducing your time compiling transactions.

Vendor Services

Our end-to-end AP management solution, VendorAlly, is included at no extra charge in Enumerate Central.

It provides visibility to improve accuracy and automates what once were manual tasks like processing mail, inputting invoices, insurance payments, and vendor communication.

Vendors can submit the invoices and any relevant attachments for review and approval. If there’s an issue, you can correspond within the platform to keep everything in one place. Your vendors can even enroll to receive digital payments without interrupting anyone on your team.

One of our customers, Fidelity Management Services, reduced their labor time by 75% by allowing vendors to submit their own invoices. Imagine what your AP team can save in time and productivity.
