WAUSAU Financial Systems Introduces Latest Generation of Receivables360® Solution

Advanced Single Platform Provides Visibility to All Receivables, Improves Business Decisions

2014 AFP Annual Conference

MOSINEE, Wis.--()--WAUSAU Financial Systems, a provider of best-in-class financial technology, services and solutions, and recently acquired by Deluxe Corporation, will introduce the next version of Receivables360®, its advanced single platform for handling the entire receivables process across all payment types, at the AFP Annual Conference, Nov. 2-5, in Washington, D.C. The platform, which has been rated “the most comprehensive and advanced receivables solution” by industry analyst CEB TowerGroup in their 2012 report “Receivables Management Systems Technology Analysis,” will be previewed at the conference in booth #401.

Consolidated View of Payments
As payments shift from paper-based to electronic, banks are struggling to provide corporate customers a single actionable view of all payments received. According to a 2010 Aite Group report, “Integrated Receivables Hubs: Revolutionizing Receivables Processing,” 54 percent of corporations see an integrated receivables platform as a means of improving their receivables management. WAUSAU’s Receivables360 offers a single interface to manage the comprehensive payment demands of corporations and financial institutions. The solution aggregates payment types from any source, to automate processing and accelerate cash flow and insights. As an outcome of integrating receivables, consolidated views, queries, reports, exceptions and receivables posting files are available near real-time, ensuring corporations can make more immediate and informed business decisions.

Revenue-Generating Opportunities
“Our survey of the 100 largest banks in September 2014 showed that 90 percent view receivables management as the most important treasury management product area to drive revenue growth,” said Bob Meara, senior analyst in Celent’s Banking Group. “Furthermore, 92 percent of the largest banks surveyed view an integrated receivables solution that handles all payment types as most important among all receivables products to future revenue growth.”

Flexible Delivery, Security Features
Receivables360, offered as an in-house, outsourced or hosted solution, works in an agnostic fashion with existing receivables systems. The hosted delivery model provides banks with a secure environment and reduces the amount of resources necessary to launch the new product to their commercial clients. The solution also delivers new security features including granular user management and access control.

Deeper Insights, Improved Outcomes
The latest version of Receivables360 puts the power of data driven insights and management into the corporate customers’ hands, allowing them to:

  • Post payments sooner and reduce the average number of days it takes to collect revenue after a sale has been made.
  • Gain insights into current payment trends, such as the total of payments from all sources and the mix from each source, to make critical business decisions.
  • Visualize incoming payments from all channels, including paper and electronic.
  • Decide and eliminate exceptions from all sources through a common interface to improve processing speed and reconciliation.
  • Receive greater visibility through dashboards along with a long-term archive to search for payments and invoices.
  • Manage users and entitlements.

“With our latest version of Receivables360, we are extending our market leadership in receivables across all payment types through a powerful new set of features for security, control and transparency into cash flow,” said Gary Cawthorne, CEO, WAUSAU.
