A successful finance program is one that can integrate ERP data with a supply chain finance platform. While it seems straightforward, this requirement can be a complex challenge to master. Most platform providers offer some form of integration with ERP, and this progress is welcomed. However, these platforms are often limited in their ability to streamline integration with payments or with other supply chain finance participants such as banks or insurance companies.
