Poll Title: Preferred Electronic Solution for Channeling Vendor Invoices
Background: We use a set of electronic methods to accept and process invoices (EDI, PDF, Elemica, Vinimaya, etc.) from vendors. As the wide range of these channels blocks us from becoming lean and efficient, we would like to select the best method to channel the vendor invoices. I'm looking for best practices regarding what the best solution might be for managing invoices from vendors that meets everybody's requirements and offers cheap and fast invoice processing.
