The solution, which will be implemented in the U.S. and other global regions, will enable Accolade Wines to eliminate inefficiencies, while gaining visibility and control over its financial commitments.

“Our manual method for processing invoices was becoming too time-consuming, paper-intensive and costly,” said Amy Castro, senior accountant at Accolade Wines. “We needed to automate our invoicing process, and turned to Basware for its innovative solutions, built-in best practices and global reach. Now, with Basware’s InvoiceReady, we are able to easily streamline invoice processing, cut costs, and gain the visibility and control we need.”

Additionally, Accolade Wines will implement Basware’s scan and capture service to convert supplier invoices to e-invoices so the company can process all invoices electronically, no matter the format in which they are received. Accolade Wines also will implement InvoiceReady Mobile, recently announced by Basware, which enables the company’s employees to review and approve tasks anytime, anywhere from their mobile devices.
