Your Payables Are a Cash Flow Weapon: How to Optimize Working Capital When Every Forecast Is Wrong

56% of CFOs rank cost optimization as a top priority. 51% say improving forecast accuracy is just as urgent. Tariffs have been a concern for CFOs for four consecutive quarters. And only 2% of finance leaders say they have full confidence in their organization's view of cash flow.

Meanwhile, the average AP department still runs on metrics designed for operational compliance — invoice cycle times, error rates, and three-way match percentages — while the CFO's office asks questions like: How do I protect working capital when supplier terms are shifting under tariff pressure? Where can I free up cash without damaging the supplier relationships I'll need when demand recovers? How do I build forecast models that hold up when planning assumptions change every quarter?

The data to answer these questions exists in your payables. Most organizations don’t use it that way.

This webinar bridges the gap between AP operations and CFO-level financial strategy — with specific, defensible examples of how payables data becomes a working capital and cash flow lever, not just a back-office function.

In this webinar, we’ll cover:

• The working capital hidden in your payment timing
• Probabilistic payment scheduling
• The forecasting gap your POs can't close
• Real AI vs. AI noise
