Case Study: Southern Supply achieves automated positive-pay fraud prevention and faster payment processing with Informer by Entrinsik

Southern Supply Automates Positive Pay Fraud Prevention Measures with Informer

Southern Supply, a group of distribution and manufacturing companies based in Springfield, Missouri, faced repeated risk of vendor check fraud caused by unauthorized data edits. With multiple business units using different ERPs and no practical manual way to implement positive pay, payment processing was delayed and the company lacked an efficient way to match issued checks with those presented for payment.

Southern Supply automated positive pay using Informer in just a few hours, leveraging its ERP-agnostic connections, scheduled Jobs to send emails/FTPs, conditional output, and aggregation of invoice lines into check totals. The solution centralized the process across platforms, increased security against stolen checks, sped up payments, and delivered significant time and cost savings by avoiding custom, ERP-specific programs.
