AP Automation Readiness Checklist
Score your organization's readiness for AP automation across processes, technology, data, and team preparedness.
AP automation delivers the best results when organizations are prepared. Our readiness checklist evaluates four critical dimensions — processes, technology infrastructure, data quality, and team readiness — to help you plan a successful implementation.
How It Works
Answer questions about your current AP processes, technology stack, data practices, and team capabilities. We score your readiness and provide a prioritized preparation plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does AP automation implementation take?
Implementation typically takes 4-8 weeks depending on your readiness level, ERP complexity, and scope. Organizations with higher readiness scores can often go live in 4 weeks or less.
What if our readiness score is low?
A low score does not mean you cannot automate — it means preparation will improve your outcomes. Most readiness gaps (process documentation, data cleanup) can be addressed in 2-4 weeks before implementation.
Do we need to change our ERP to automate AP?
No. Modern AP automation platforms like Nexus AP integrate with virtually any ERP or accounting system. The integration approach varies, but no ERP replacement is needed.
