City of Euclid's Story
The Challenge
The City’s check runs were taking weeks to approve and process taking time away from other important AP-related tasks. Vendors had also expressed some concerns about the length of time it was taking to receive payment. The city of Euclid, OH started searching for AP software solutions.
The Results
Simplified and more secure AP software services integrated with their VIP General Ledger. Check processing went from weeks to process to an hour with the added flexibility to process checks at any time. Thanks to SSI’s AP software solutions, vendor calls and payment turnaround time has also decreased by 87%.
“Our AP process before was so slow and cumbersome. Today it is much faster, more simplified, and more secure. It has saved us time on every step, from invoice processing all the way to bank reconciliation. We are not going back to the old way!”

Asst. Finance Director
