IPS Productivity Wrx℠ Makes Electronic Posting of Google and Facebook Invoices a Reality for Media and Advertising Agencies

IPS, a leading provider of solutions that digitally transform the accounts payable process end-to-end, announced today that its Productivity Wrx℠ platform is helping the world's leading media and advertising agencies eliminate more than two-thirds of the manual effort associated with processing invoices received via e-mail and other electronic channels. Be alert to read related news.

IPS Productivity Wrx℠ processes more invoices received electronically from Facebook, Google and other digital media companies than any other automated media payables solution in the world. The IPS Productivity Wrx℠ platform not only supports Google and Facebook, but all digital invoices from any publisher or content provider.

Most media and advertising agencies require human operators to manually handle all the invoices they receive from suppliers via e-mail, file transfer protocol (FTP) upload or an online portal. Some media and advertising agencies use e-mail to receive and approve invoices and reconciliation. Relying on e-mail for invoice approval, exceptions resolution and reconciliation provides poor control over the routing of invoices, offers no tracking or visibility into the status of invoices, and requires suppliers to re-submit and revise problematic invoices, such as those with incomplete or inaccurate data.

Posting invoices electronically, without human operator intervention, enables media and advertising agencies to reduce invoice approval costs by more than 50 percent and dramatically accelerate their cycle times. IPS also provides complete transparency across the invoice approval cycle, enabling media and advertising agencies to better monitor and control their working capital and corporate spend.

"Supplier invoices received via e-mail and other electronic channels shouldn't have to be treated as exceptions that require a significant amount of manual effort," said IPS Founder and CEO Greg Bartels. "IPS Productivity Wrx℠ for Media enables media and advertising agencies to post electronic invoices directly to their media, accounting and enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform, without human operator intervention." Read this here.

IPS uses software "bots" that it developed to automatically retrieve invoices from a supplier portal, e-mail box or FTP site. All physical and electronic invoices are centralized onto the Productivity Wrx℠ platform. Once an invoice is received, IPS Productivity Wrx℠ uses intelligent data capture technology to extract invoice data. Extracted data is validated to guarantee invoice data accuracy of 99.95 percent. Defective invoices – such as those with missing information or an incorrect total – are automatically identified prior to the approval process and digitally routed based on pre-set business rules. An automated process enables suppliers to add or revise invoice data via a collaborative online portal without having to re-submit the invoice. Alternatively, the platform supports an automated revision process for the resubmission of defective and/or revised invoices. All required invoice data as well as the approved invoice is digitally uploaded to the advertising agency's systems. IPS Productivity Wrx℠ tracks all invoices and provides authorized users with real-time visibility into the end-to-end status of each invoice.

New survey finds small businesses prefer card payments over cash as new ways to pay enter the marketplace

Mercator Advisory Group's most recent Insight Summary Report, Small Business Payments Acceptance: More Payment Options Creeping In, based on the company's annual Small Business Payments and Banking Survey conducted in spring 2019, reveals that more small businesses are selling online (59%) than are selling in a physical store (47%). However, the bulk of share of sales is coming from in-store sales rather than online sales. Further, about one-third of small businesses (35%) report that they are selling via a mobile app. Small businesses are more likely to report that their preferred method of payment is from the card networks rather than cash or any other method. The primary reason for preferring a certain kind of payment is the ease of handling (65%); only 4 in 10 mention lower cost. Be alert to the latest news.

Small businesses are mainly getting merchant services from their primary bank (70%). A similar proportion are getting merchant services from a single provider. Many third-party providers offer smaller merchants ancillary services they need aside from core processing services, and many businesses are migrating to third-party providers for online and mobile services, often designed for their business verticals.

Payments Acceptance: More Payment Options Creeping In is the second of three reports summarizing the results of the 2019 Small Business Payments and Banking Survey, the fourth annual survey of small businesses fielded by Mercator Advisory Group. This was a web-based survey of 2,002 U.S. small businesses (between $100,000 and $10 million annual sales) regarding their use of payments and banking services.

The survey contained questions on current business sentiment, payment acceptance services, business-to-business (B2B) payments, and banking depository and loan services. Forthcoming companion reports summarize the survey's findings on business-to-business payments and business banking services.

"There is a lot going on in the small business space when it comes to accepting payments, and the options available to merchants can be daunting. There is a great opportunity for companies that can understand the needs of small businesses and help them navigate the uncertainties of the ever-changing payments space," notes the author of this report, Peter Reville, Director, Primary Data Services at Mercator Advisory Group.

Highlights of this Insight Summary Report include:

Companies mentioned are: Alibaba, American Express, Apple, Chase, China UnionPay, Clover, Diebold, Discover, First Data, Google, Ingenico, LevelUp, Mastercard, Micros, NCR, PayPal, PayPal, Revel, Samsung, Shopify, Shopkeep, Square, Stripe, Verifone, Visa, and WeChat

Subscribers to Mercator Advisory Group's 2019 Small Business Payments and Banking Survey have access to these reports as well as survey crosstabs, PowerPoint slides of the report exhibits, and the option of requesting custom queries from the survey data.

Sunrise Hitek Debuts Custom Playing Cards In a Variety of Finishes

Playing Cards from Sunrise Hitek are 100% customizable. Simply provide the artwork and they will do the rest. They can produce a standard playing card deck as well as other more out of the box ideas. Trading cards, flash cards, and game cards are just a few ideas. With in-house digital die-cutting these can also be cut into virtually any shape desired.

After deciding on size and shape there are also various paper stocks and finishes to choose from. In addition to the standard weight stock used for a playing card deck, buyers can choose a heavier weight paper stock, or even add painted edges to their thicker cards! While a standard gloss finish is popular, there is also matte, satin, and spot UV coating which can make a specific logo or photo pop for added depth. Read this for more information.

Another great feature is printing on metallic stock. While a metallic finish is definitely shiny and aesthetically pleasing, it has other added benefits. They can even be used to create special effects or anti-counterfeit measures.. Anything printed with a metallic finish gives an instant wow factor.

One of the best perks to working with Sunrise Hitek is that using an all digital workflow allows for low minimum quantities.

New launch propels Karla Dubois beyond the baby market

Already veterans of the baby furniture industry, the minds at Karla Dubois are gearing up to launch two new pieces that will lead the company's expansion into products designed for older children and pre-teens. Click here to read the latest news.

The launch will feature the new Bodhi Twin Bed and the Gogh Swivel Glider chair. Both of these new products build on existing mainstays of the Karla Dubois catalog to offer something new.

The Bodhi Twin Bed is a prime example. An evolution of the popular Bodhi Toddler Bed, it takes the same playful design and scales it up to be enjoyed by kids of all ages. As well, current Bodhi Toddler Bed buyers will be able to upgrade as their child grows, confident that their new purchase will match existing decor.

"Our goal is to provide something like a continuity of style," said Karla Dubois CEO and co-founder Neill Herbert, "We want families who love our brand to feel like they can always come back to it, no matter how old their child gets."

The Gogh chair demonstrates a more subtle approach, expanding in style as much as use case. It has a swivel glider base that offers a similar utility to the company's previous nursery decor, but a new, modern design and on-trend color palette that would be just as fitting in the lounge of a metropolitan apartment as any whimsical baby room.

Growing with their customers is not just a new company line, either. The Karla Dubois catalog features many products with convertible designs, built to adapt to a family's changing needs. It seems that now the company itself is ready to evolve.

The Bodhi Toddler Bed and Gogh Swivel Glider chair will be available for purchase at wayfair.com. The Bodhi Twin Bed will be priced at $799.99 and come in Dappled Grey, Midnight Blue, Dusk Blue, and Lavender Mist color variants. The Gogh will be priced at $389.99 and come in Candy Apple, Dusty Rose, Earl Grey, Marigold, and Peacock.

BullGuard Launches Small Office Security To Protect Businesses From Cyber Threats

Award winning cybersecurity company, BullGuard today released BullGuard Small Office Security, a new, powerful, cloud-managed endpoint security service for the small business market. BullGuard Small Office Security enables businesses to operate with the knowledge they are protected against identity and data theft, account takeover, malware such as ransomware, and other cyber threats.

More info here.:

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/rob-lowe-hosts-new-on-demand-segment-on.html

BullGuard Small Office Security provides robust endpoint protection for desktops, laptops, tablets and smartphones, making it perfect for mobile workforces to work safely on their devices in the office, at home, or while hot desking or traveling. Small Office Security safeguards Windows®, Android® and MacOS® devices and is backed by BullGuard's highly acclaimed live 24/7 technical support, while endpoint security management is simple via an easy-to-use cloud-based portal.

"Cybersecurity solutions for small offices are typically complex and challenging for businesses to deploy and use because they are re-engineered from legacy enterprise solutions designed for organizations with thousands of users," said Paul Lipman, CEO of BullGuard. "Small businesses are more vulnerable to cyberattacks as cyber criminals increasingly focus their attention on the small office space and these companies are typically not as well protected as their enterprise counterparts. BullGuard Small Office Security is designed explicitly to meet the needs of today's small offices."

At the heart of BullGuard Small Office Security is BullGuard's award-winning anti-malware protection, which consistently scores very highly in independent malware detection tests. Companies that fall victim to a cyberattack often experience significant downtime that seriously impacts productivity, data privacy, and even earnings. With BullGuard Small Office Security, small office businesses are fully protected by a proprietary multi-layered behavioral engine that stops all types of malware in its tracks. It also includes endpoint-based machine learning to bolster security even further with advanced zero-day threat detection, which ensures systems are protected even when offline, and without requiring signature updates.

BullGuard Small Office Security is ideal for any small office, including those that currently use third-party companies to install and manage their endpoint cybersecurity, as well as small offices that prefer to manage their own security in-house. Set-up and deployment take just minutes, security issues can be resolved in an instant, and the service uses minimal device resources. Read related news now.

The BullGuard Cloud Admin Portal is designed exclusively to meet small office endpoint management requirements, providing easy and comprehensive real-time management of all devices:
●    Easy deployment: A company administrator simply emails employees from the portal and they click on a link and register without the need for any credentials to be entered. This includes fixed workstations as well as personal mobile devices (BYOD).
●    Safe mobile working: Devices are completely secured enabling employees in the field to go safely about their business. Missing devices can be located and remotely locked or wiped.
●    Remote management: BullGuard Small Office Security provides an immediate 360-degree view of device security status, which in turn enables remote actions such as applying updates, disabling, enabling and restarting devices as well as the management of quarantined files.
●    Red flags: Malware infections spread rapidly and those such as ransomware can take businesses down in seconds. An alert system provides immediate notification about security events allowing instant remedial action, ensuring the company isn't held hostage by cyber criminals.
●    Filter out danger: Blocks malicious websites, phishing emails and browser plug-ins and extensions that are known to be dangerous, keeping the company and employees safe from harmful downloads
●    Stay ahead of remote device infections: Sometimes devices can be infected via a USB or by plugging into a computer outside of the company network. In these cases, BullGuard Small Office Security detects, blocks and notifies the administrator. It also sends an alert if a device has been offline for too long.
●    Simple employee management: When an employee leaves or joins the company the relevant computing device is simply disabled via the portal, while security for new employee devices is just as easily enabled.
●    Group settings: Many websites can hide malicious code and some IP addresses can be identified as the source of undesirable websites and server hosts. An administrator can use group settings to stop suspicious websites and server hosts from causing harm to the company network and individual endpoints.
●    Full reports: Provides complete reports on device status, threats and tasks so that nothing is overlooked

"We have made cybersecurity a less daunting challenge for small business owners, making it simple for them to stop professional cybercriminals from gaining access to their company's data, intellectual property and funds. Now, small companies can enjoy complete endpoint protection from a trusted brand and get on with the more important task of running their business," added Paul Lipman.
