Case Study: House of Cheatham achieves 20 hours/week time savings, real-time visibility, and cash-flow control with MineralTree

Unlocks Efficiency, Visibility, and Control with MineralTree

House of Cheatham, a century‑old personal and beauty care manufacturer and retailer, was hampered by a manual accounts payable process managed by a single AP staffer. Paper invoices arrived by mail, email, and downloads, coding relied on cheat sheets and ad‑hoc emails, and approvals were handled via individual emails—creating slow cycles, limited visibility into invoice status, and risk to supplier relationships.

The company implemented MineralTree, integrating with Microsoft Great Plains in under an hour, created a shared AP inbox, automated invoice capture and coding, and built clear approval workflows. Payment runs dropped from six+ hours to five minutes, the team saves about 20 hours per week, virtual card rebates (SilverPay) have fully funded the solution, and the business now has stronger control over cash flow, discounts, and future ERP migrations.
