Decision tree

  1. Is your process documented and standardized? If not, the highest-impact first move is to standardize before automating — neither tool pays off on a chaotic process (Art. VII).
  2. Standardized and scaling past spreadsheets? Adopt dedicated software — for enterprise/SOX, Tipalti, Inc. tends to fit; for leaner mid-market, FloQast.
  3. Match your ERP ecosystem — pick the vendor that integrates natively with your ERP (see Integrations).

This mirrors the same governed decision logic the Advisor runs for your exact situation.
