Switching from paper to electronic invoicing can save companies $2.85-$3.34 per invoice through reduced processing costs. Companies that process over 10,000 invoices per month can save $342,000-$400,800 annually and reduce the need for back office staff by 8.5-10 full time employees. Using electronic invoicing can also significantly reduce a company's carbon footprint by decreasing paper usage and the associated environmental impacts of paper production and disposal.
