How does AP interact with treasury and cash forecasting around payment runs?

Advanced

Answer

AP feeds treasury the pipeline of approved and upcoming payables (amounts, due dates, currencies) so treasury can forecast outflows, ensure funding and FX cover, and decide timing/discount strategy. Treasury may set run caps or timing to match liquidity. This coordination avoids overdrafts, missed discounts, and unnecessary borrowing.
Real-world example AP's due-date pipeline lets treasury pre-fund a large FX payment and avoid a costly same-day funding scramble.
